Employees must maintain and keep up farm appearances e.g. running a weed trimmer, push mower, trimming trees and bushes along with filling pot holes with stone. Employees must be able to help with set up of irrigation pipe during dry times and help with de-watering during wet times. We have around 1 acre of pumpkins and other fall crops are grown, so there will be a few hours a week in spring and summer hoeing and watering the pumpkins.
