Job Duties:

Rose Creek Farms engages in a unique form of direct-to-consumer produce distribution to food banks and grocery stores, and to weekly farmers market, which requires of employees a knowledge and judgment level significantly above industry standards. This knowledge and judgement can only come from experience working in the pack house. For example, employees will be required to sort, clean/wash and pack a number of different varieties of fresh greens within a narrow range of quality standards (unlike conventional lettuce for example, which is picked and shipped out of the field). They will be required to pack highly perishable varieties of numerous different types of salad crops - not in the conventional 24 count leaf lettuce box - but in boxes of mixed produce where they can easily be crushed or otherwise damaged. They will spend large amounts of time grading; sorting numerous different types of root vegetables; storage crops for cosmetic and structural defects and suitability for delivery to very high-end customers. This skill alone can take weeks to develop, even for an employee who has months or even years of experience. Job duties will include: clean containers, materials, supplies, or work areas, using cleaning solutions and hand tools, mark and label containers, container tags, or products, using marking tools, measure, weigh, and count products and materials, obtain, move, and sort products, materials, containers, and orders, using hand tools, record product, packaging, and order information on specified forms and records, clean facilities or work areas, measure product or material dimensions, move materials, equipment, or supplies, remove debris or damaged materials, sort materials or objects for processing or transport, weigh materials to ensure compliance with specifications.
