Two Local Farms Are Hiring — Help Us Grow Chattahoochee Hills' Agricultural Workforce

If you've ever driven through Chattahoochee Hills and thought, "I'd love to work outside, with my hands, growing food for my community" — now's your chance. Two beloved local farms, The Good Place Farm and Deer Creek Farm, are both hiring right now, and the Chattahoochee Hill Country Conservancy is proud to help spread the word.


Supporting working farms isn't just about preserving green space — it's about sustaining the people and livelihoods that make our agricultural community possible.


Whether you're looking for a new career in regenerative agriculture or a flexible part-time role outdoors, one of these positions might be the perfect fit.

Part Time with growth



Farm Operations Lead — The Good Place Farm


Location: Chattahoochee Hills, GA


Type: Independent Contractor, 30+ hours/week


Pay: $22/hour, depending on experience


The Good Place Farm has grown from a family homestead into a thriving agritourism destination — and a social media phenomenon, with more than a million followers tuning in for farm life, animal stories, and seasonal updates. Now they need a dependable, hands-on Farm Operations Lead to help keep the daily work of the farm running smoothly as it continues to expand its garden, livestock, U-Pick program, and public-facing events.


What you'd be doing:

  • Garden care — harvesting, bed prep, replanting, weeding, watering, trellising, and pruning

  • Animal care — feeding, watering, health checks, basic doctoring, and humane handling

  • Rotational grazing support, including setting up and moving electric fencing

  • Groundskeeping and maintenance — mowing, fence and barn repairs, basic carpentry

  • Helping coordinate volunteers and farm helpers

  • Occasional support with animal sales, transport, or processor drop-offs


Who they're looking for: Someone reliable, calm around animals, comfortable with physical labor, and able to work independently with good judgment. Experience in market gardening, livestock care, rotational grazing, or general farm maintenance is a strong plus, though not absolutely required.


Schedule: Roughly 4–6 hours a day to start (30+ hours per week), with room to grow toward full days depending on experience and farm needs. Some weekend availability may be required during harvest or high-demand seasons.


Apply by: August 1, 2026






Farm Helper — Deer Creek Farm


Location: 11750 Hutcheson Ferry Road, Chattahoochee Hills, GA 30268


Type: Part-time, with potential to grow into full-time


Pay: Negotiable, based on experience


Deer Creek Farm is looking for motivated, dependable people to join their team. This role starts part-time with flexible hours, and there's real potential for it to grow into full-time work for the right person.


What you'd be doing:

  • Planting and maintaining crops

  • Fertilizing and soil management

  • Harvesting, washing, and packing produce

  • Mowing, weed eating, and hand weeding

  • Helping build and repair farm infrastructure and equipment

  • General farm upkeep and other duties as needed


Who they're looking for: No farm experience required — Deer Creek is willing to train the right person who's eager to learn and enjoys working outdoors. You should be ready for physically demanding work in all kinds of weather, comfortable working both independently and as part of a team, and ideally have some interest in sustainable agriculture and local food production.
