Job Opportunities
Pinelands Alliance is hiring a Traveling Farm Worker to support our network of partnered specialty produce farms across South Jersey. This is a unique opportunity for an experienced agricultural worker to broaden their skills across a diverse range of small-scale, diversified farming operations — no two days will look the same. This is not a single farm position. You will commute in your own vehicle to multiple partner farms throughout South Jersey on a rotating schedule, providing hands-on labor support where it’s needed most during peak production periods. You will be employed and scheduled by Pinelands Alliance, but your day-to-day work will take place on partner farms under the direction of each farm’s operator. In addition to farm work, you will use a company-provided vehicle to deliver produce to commercial buyers, food banks, and distribution partners. This position is seasonal and will operate through October. There is a possibility for extension or continuation for the next growing season.
Pinelands Alliance is seeking a Bookkeeper to perform day-to-day bookkeeping for the
Alliance and its subsidiaries: Pinelands Adventures and Rancocas Creek Farm. The
Bookkeeper ensures the Alliance has accurate financial records. In this position you will
report to the Finance Manager. Working here means working with a great team of
colleagues, activists and partners to protect a unique and fragile ecosystem that provides
drinking water for millions of people, beautiful places to recreate, and habitats for unique
communities of wildlife and plants. This is a part-time position.
The Pinelands Alliance is seeking a creative, strategic Communications Manager to lead and
execute communications that inspire people to protect the Pinelands and get involved in our work.

This is a full time position.
