    Job Description

    • We are looking for a hands-on Farm Manager who can both work the land and write the playbook. You will design and run Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for soil fertility and pest/disease management, plan cropping so harvests match market and box demand, and keep day-to-day operations organised.

    Key Responsibilities

    Fertility and soil health

    • ⁠Design and document SOPs for compost, compost teas, animal manures, green manures, cover crops, mulching, and other on-farm fertility sources.
    • ⁠Plan crop rotations and intercrops that build soil rather than mine it.
    • ⁠Arrange and interpret soil tests; keep simple records of organic matter, structure, and input use.
    • ⁠Train and supervise farm workers on these practices.

    Pest, disease and weed management (regenerative / agroecological)

    • ⁠Write and implement SOPs for scouting, thresholds, and non-chemical control (habitat for beneficial insects, traps, botanicals such as neem, ash, intercropping, sanitation, resistant varieties).
    • ⁠Keep spray/application logs only for approved biological or botanical products.
    • ⁠Reduce pest pressure through diversity, timing, and field hygiene rather than calendar spraying.

    Production planning for markets and veggie boxes

    • ⁠Build a seasonal crop plan and planting calendar so harvests match farmers’ market days and weekly box contents.
    • ⁠Forecast volumes, stagger plantings, and manage succession so boxes stay full and varied.
    • ⁠Coordinate harvest, grading, packing, and cold-chain or same-day delivery.
    • ⁠Track what sells, what wastes, and adjust the plan each season.
