Barnsmuir Farm is currently recruiting for the 2024 fruits and vegetable harvest.
We are currently looking for motivated individuals to come and help harvest our fruits and vegetable crops from early June until late November 2024.
The work is very physical so you must be physically fit as lifting will be involved. Great dexterity is needed when picking soft fruit to ensure it is harvested undamaged. Workers will need to be very agile to ensure this.
Please note that we will require all applicants to commit to working 6 days a week and up to 8 hours per day, however this can vary depending on the weather, the quality of the crop and time of season.
To meet customer orders, the job will require flexibility on the working hours and rest days, early starts and late finishes.
You will be paid according to the Scottish Agricultural Wages Order and required to achieve minimum performance targets; with piecework rates enabling you to earn a bonus.
All of our fruit is grown in poly tunnels but workers should be prepared to work in different weather conditions. Our strawberries are all table top grown, making it easier to pick.
Own transport is essential due to location and early starts. Accommodation is available in the farm. Apply for more details about the working conditions and pay.
