What are the responsibilities and job description for the Landscaping Team Member position at Haymarket?
The legacy of Ashbourne Farms is built on its agricultural tradition, from its early days breeding Shorthorn cattle to its history as a notable Inn that served some of the original farm-to-table cuisines. With the passage of time came an even deeper understanding of the oft-misused phrase. Here, it is tied to the importance of responsibly raised animals, sustainably grown produce, and the utmost care for the land.
Ashbourne Farms opened Haymarket in 2023, and Haymarket celebrates the best that local and global culinary artisans have to offer. Straight from our soil to our shelves we offer a variety of freshly harvested Haymarket produce, artisan bread, pasture-raised meats, drive through coffee and convenient prepared foods – all designed to elevate your daily mealtimes.
Food service and hospitality businesses are the lifeblood of a vibrant community. They are the backbone of our local and regional economies and contribute to a healthy social fabric by defining what is unique, authentic, and important to us. Together, we will elevate Kentucky’s culinary scene, celebrate our unique culinary perspective, and re-define “fast food” convenience in a way that nourishes the bodies and senses of its patrons.
We are seeking a Seasonal Landscaping Team Member to ensure the grounds of Ashbourne Farms, and its accompanying properties, are well-tended in a safe, efficient way. Responsibilities vary seasonally and include weeding, mulching, mowing, seeding, and plant installation. This role provides support to other teams throughout the farm such as Wildlife, Maintenance, and Garden as needed. We are looking for the seasonal person to work until early November.
