CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

FARM STORE SALES ASSOCIATE


We are looking for a full-time (28-32 hrs/week) passionate and energetic individual to add to our All Grass Farm Store Team. Individual needs to be able to work at least one weekend day weekly.

 

Job Description:

Our Team Members participate in every aspect of running the Farm Store. While our store may be small, it is a bustling enterprise that requires dedication, focus, and enthusiasm to run properly. We begin our day about an hour before we open and often stay 30 minutes after closing. You will keep busy talking to and ringing up customers, restocking products, keeping track of the milk supply, and answering phone calls and emails. Weekends can be particularly busy and demanding when the weather is good and customers flock to walk our property and the surrounding forest preserve, stock up on the week’s groceries, and enjoy the Farm Tour on Saturdays.

 

Job Requirements:

Team members will need to be good multitaskers, prioritizing excellent customer service in person, via email, and over the phone. Our team often thrives on doing several things at once, including but not limited to:

  • Restocking frozen meat, milk, vegetables, and a variety of food products.
  • Keeping track of milk levels throughout the day. 
  • Restocking store products throughout the day
  • Checking-in, unpacking, and displaying orders. 
  • Completing store opening and closing tasks as assigned, including washing the milk tank, cleaning the store, restocking products, and closing out the cash register.
  • Other tasks as assigned.

Applicants must be 18 years of age at the start of the position and able to lift at least 40 lbs. to shoulder height (e.g., boxes of eggs, containers of milk, cases of meat), and comfortable standing most of the work shift with limited time for sitting. A flexible work schedule is required, including some nights, weekends, and holidays. While most of the shift would take place in the farm store, sales associates are exposed to cold (walk-in cooler/freezer) and hot temperatures (occasional customer support outside). We will begin training immediately on a few short shifts (10-12 hours a week) with hours increasing as we approach the peak of summer.

 

Ideal candidates are self-motivated, can work independently and as part of the store team, have a willingness and interest in learning about the products sold in the store, especially ones produced by All Grass Farms. Candidates should also show an interest in local food and an excitement to share that information with our customers. Retail experience is preferred, though not necessarily required.


Compensation: $15-$18/hr. based on experience.

 

Hours: 28-32 hours (hours may vary with seasons).
