  • Blooming Hill Farm
  • Monroe, NY

Job Description

Company description

Blooming Hill is a small, family-owned farm with an onsite restaurant and event venue. The farm uses around 100 acres of land in Orange County, NY and grows a very wide variety of specialty organic produce. The founding business for the farm was selling produce wholesale to restaurants and retail at farmer's markets in the Hudson Valley, New York City, & the surrounding area. In recent years we expanded our offerings to include a full service on site restaurant and catering for events we host at the farm. Our season for larger outdoor events- mainly weddings- runs from May until early November but booking and planning events take place year round. .

We center the food and beverage program for the restaurant and events around the produce we grow on our properties and attempt to source anything that we don't produce ourselves from the highest quality farmers & purveyors.

Our normal company working days are Wednesday through Sunday and we often work nights and weekends during our busy event season. Our events are mainly held Fri, Sat & Sun evenings between May - November so availability on site on those days is a must for this position.

  • Multitasker with an intuitive nature who will strive to ascertain and fulfill the needs of the event management team
  • Good working knowledge of Google Drive, Gmail, Calendar, Docs, and Sheets (knowledge or experience with other event planning software is also a plus, though may or may not be used at our company)
  • Outstanding verbal and written communication skills

Responsibilities & Duties of this Position:

  • Day of event coordination and execution, as needed
