Taliaferro Farms

I’m in search of an aspiring farmer (or farmers) with vegetable farming experience, preferably organic, who would be willing to partner with me on my family’s 32 acre farm. My father has been transitioning out of the business for the last 4 years and is passing the opportunity on to me. The farm was established in 1995, and there is significant infrastructure present to continue to build a flourishing agricultural business. I envision a partnership where we work together to build a team as growers to bring the crops to maturity, yet bring to the table our own independent marketing goals and objectives. As a partner and team member you will be expected to help maintain and assist with general administrative duties and decisions, general equipment operation, greenhouse starts, crop planting, maintaining crop health, harvesting and packing the crop, sales and marketing of the crop. I’m looking for someone that has at least 8 years of experience working on other farms and growing crops. Also any marketing or agritourism experience would be an added plus. The farm has established a good customer base, but I want to continue to expand it and create a well developed business plan together as partners with the long term goal of creating a thriving farming business. I need someone who understands the amount of dedication and strength that has to be put forth during the farming season to bring a season to fruition. If you think this is something you are interested in, have the qualifications and you are up to the task this could turn into a fruitful satisfying long term opportunity for all parties involved.
