JOB TASKS

On the orchard side the key responsibilities will include but are not limited to fruit picking
and fruit processing for the cidery side. Fruit picking experience is a bonus. Due to the

the afternoons and weekends in Cawston.

pasteurizing and packaging cider.

A flex position to work in the orchard and cidery tasting room is available for the right
applicant.
