Job Description
Amber Waves Farm is a nonprofit teaching farm on the easternmost end of Long Island. The farm operates on 45 total acres, raising 20 acres of vegetables, 5 acres of grains, 3 acres of cut flowers, a small flock of laying hens, and 6 pygmy goats. The farm's production serves a 350+ member CSA and on-site retail farm market and kitchen and local food pantries. Amber Waves is located in downtown Amagansett and is a popular destination for locals, visitors, families, chefs, home cooks, and groups who come to shop in the retail market and tour the fields. The farm is deeply involved in intensive educational work with nearby schools and the public, which includes frequent field trips, educational kids' classes, and a farming apprenticeship program to train future farmers. While the farm is not certified organic, we do subscribe to the Northeast Organic Farmers Association's (NOFA) "Farmer's Pledge" program of growing fruits, vegetables, and grains sustainably and responsibly.
