The Natick Community Organic Farm is a nonprofit, certified-organic farm. They provide productive open space, farm products, and hands-on education for all ages, year-round. The Natick Community Organic Farm is about farming in the public eye. Visitors to the farm learn what food looks like before it gets processed, refined, or packaged. We demonstrate how to take good care of the land and the animals, and we’re excited to teach the next generation about stewardship, ecology, and personal responsibility.

Summer Farm Educator Job:
