Seasonal Vacancies

Season: April - October/mid-November

The Market Garden at Bore Place is 6½ acres (mostly outdoors) and supplies box schemes, a wholefood shop as well as attending a farmers market in London. We grow a wide range of vegetables and do most of the propagating ourselves. During the season you will see and experience sowing, planting crop maintenance and harvesting

The market garden is a medium scale veg growing business. Ideal if you want to make a next step into learning about growing vegetables for wholesale and farmers markets. We harvest to order so you need to be able to work with deadlines and be physically fit. The work can be repetitive, and we work under all weather conditions.
