About

Our farm is looking for seasonal workers for our 2026 tomato harvest season which begins late April/ early May, and ends in October.

The picking team is responsible for identifying the ripe tomatoes on the bush and harvesting by hand, then placing into buckets. Strong physical capability is essential. This work is outdoors where weather conditions play a big part as our region experiences a diverse climate with distinct wet and dry seasons.

As this is a seasonal role, hours and days of work vary depending on the tomatoes and other conditions such as the weather. The hours of work can be particularly demanding and variable. As crops reach their peak ripeness, there is a short window of opportunity to harvest them at optimal quality. This often leads to extended workdays, with early mornings and late evenings. The urgency to gather the crops promptly may result in longer shifts and even work on weekends to meet harvest targets.
Additionally, weather conditions play a crucial role during this time, as rain or adverse weather can delay harvesting or create urgent needs for immediate action.

Flexibility and commitment are essential traits during the season.
