• Summer 2025 Flowering Sun Ecology is a small regenerative farm in Ellenville, NY.

We grow a wide range of fresh mushrooms, seasonal vegetables, and medicinal herbs, and we focus on soil health, sustainability, and feeding our community with care. Our farm is also a place for education, gathering, and reconnecting with land-based ways of living. We're hiring for our farmers market team. We are looking for someone friendly, reliable, and enjoys talking with people about good food. You'll help set up and break down the booth, keep things organized and moving, and connect with customers about how to cook and enjoy what we grow. Markets can be busy and lively, so you'll meet a lot of people, answer questions, and share what makes our farm's food special. Days typically run 8 to 12 hours including travel, so it's important to be energized, self-directed, and able to stay focused through a full day. If you care about food, farming, and community, and you enjoy fast-paced, people-centered work, we'd love to hear from you.
