About The Community Farm
The Community Farm is a not-for-profit social enterprise based in the Chew Valley, just outside Bristol and Bath. We are a nature-friendly, organic farm, working with a network of producers who share our ethics, to supply fresh, local and organic food to hundreds of households throughout Bristol, Bath, the Chew Valley, Frome and Weston-Super-Mare. We aim to grow community as much as we grow food. Every year we welcome over 1,000 people onto the land for volunteering sessions, wellbeing courses and events centred around food, farming and connection to the land.
Main Purpose of the Job
The role will cover delivering residential Veg Box scheme orders within about a 15 mile radius of The Farm, covering Bristol, Bath, Weston-Super-Mare, Frome and the surrounding areas and, if covering Wholesale rounds, preparing and delivering orders for these customers. You need to be confident driving a 3 tonne van in both rural and urban areas that contain everything from country lanes to overcrowded city residential streets. Being the face of The Farm to our customers, you need to be an ambassador for The Farm, working to high standards at all times.
