Work outdoors, on a farm with a mission bigger than any one job.

Crown Point is a small team running 115 certified organic acres, a CSA, a farmer training program, summer camp, and a full season of public events — which means the work here is rarely just one thing. Here's what it's actually like to work at Crown Point, and how to get on our radar even when nothing's posted.

The pitch

Why Work at Crown Point

The Work Is Never Just One Thing

Farm operations, education, events, and community programs all run through a small team — you're not boxed into one narrow function, the way you might be at a larger organization.

A Mission You Can Point To

171 years of continuous farming, a CSA that's fed families since 1998, and a refugee farming partnership that gives land directly to the people who need it — the mission isn't abstract here.

Real Transparency, Even Internally

Crown Point holds a GuideStar Platinum Seal of Transparency — the same openness that applies to donors applies to how the organization runs.

A different path

Volunteering Is a Different Path — and It's Always Open

Crown Point always has room for volunteers, whether helping out once a month or several times a week. If you have time to spare to help on the farm, join our events crew, or helping with the animals, we can find you that opportunity.
