Reporting directly to the Head Kitchen Gardener, this is an exciting opportunity for you to join our unique and dynamic team in overseeing the growth and functionality of our kitchen garden. You will be responsible to cover all tasks assigned by the Head Kitchen Gardener ensuring that the garden is always presentable.
As our kitchen garden is open to our guests, you must be confident to interact with them daily. We also are home to pigs, chickens and quails so some animal husbandry will be required.
Experience of working in a productive kitchen garden growing seasonal produce is preferred but not essential. Full training and support will be provided, however a real passion for gardening is required.
