About us
Birds Haven Farms is committed to only selling what we grow. We believe the customer has the right to know where and how their produce is grown. We believe you cannot ensure quality and control unless you know exactly how the produce was raised from seed. Our farm, while not certified organic, practices sustainable agriculture by growing on plastic to negate the need for herbicides and use manure as fertilizer. We do not spray any of our produce with synthetic pesticides unless facing a crop loss, and we are always willing to honestly answer any question about how your produce has been raised.
SUMMARY
This is manual work in the performance of semi-skilled farm tasks and is physically demanding in nature. Work ordinarily includes precise planting of seeds, transplanting seedlings using farm equipment, operating agricultural equipment, watering and irrigation, harvesting produce of high quality, and daily landscape tasks around the farm. All of these tasks are performed under the direction of an experienced employee, but constant supervision is not available which means we desire employees who ask questions and are self-learners. Employee must also complete additional tasks as assigned. Therefore, worker must be self-motivated and have a good work ethic. Work is reviewed for compliance with instructions and additional training is given when needed.
