Job Description

**Company Description**

We are a small, family-owned farm with an onsite restaurant and event company. Our farm spans approximately 100 acres across [Location 1] and [Location 2], where we grow a wide variety of specialty organic produce. Our business began with selling produce wholesale to restaurants and at farmer's markets in the Hudson Valley, New York City, and the surrounding areas. In recent years, we have expanded our offerings to include a full-service onsite restaurant and catering for events hosted at the farm. Our event season, primarily for weddings, runs from May until early November, with booking and planning taking place year-round.

We center our food and beverage program around the produce we grow on our properties and strive to source any additional items from the highest quality farmers and purveyors.

This role is a support position where you will directly assist the Director of Events and Senior Event Manager on a day-to-day basis.

Our normal working days are Wednesday through Sunday, with additional hours required during our busy event season. Events are mainly held on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings between May and November, so availability on those days is essential.
