Discover Why You Will Thrive at Witten Farm. Our Passion For People begins with our Staff!
It is SO much more than a summer job…you will learn MORE than just stacking corn. You will grow in Confidence, Teamwork, Leadership & Life Skills!
I return year after year because there is no other job like it. They are flexible with my college schedule, I learn new life skills and create a lot of friendships each year. A job that continues to grow myself is a job worth coming back to each year.
The Witten Farm has become like family over the last 17 years. I decided to make this my career because the love, compassion, and culture is unmatched. I love waking up every day excited to go to my dream job. Livin’ the Red Shirt Dream Since 2007
I love that this job keeps me moving and motivated but we also get to have fun. There is nothing better than a busy day at the market with the best people working beside you. It’s like an adrenaline rush getting to see our customers leave with a smile on their face and produce/flowers in hand, that alone is enough for me to come back year after year.
Market life is a true blessing, filled with smiles, corn piles, friends and dinner Amens. Livin’ the Red Shirt Dream Since 2010
will remember this job FOREVER. During my interview for a nursing position in Morgantown, I used so many stories from my experience at Witten’s and they loved hearing about it. I honestly talked more about my team work at Witten’s than I did about my actual nursing experience. Thank you so much for everything you have done over the years.
I feel extremely appreciated and seen while working at The Witten Farm. They truly feel like my home, and I know they will always have my back. Livin’ the Red Shirt Dream Since 2014
These are the kind of people you want to work for and just be around for your everyday life. Everyone works hard, but it’s work worth doing. At any given moment, if you look around the market, you’ll see positive attitudes, teamwork, amazing customer service, coupled with an even better product, and of course…Smiles and Corn Piles.
I come back every year because Witten’s pushes me to be the best version of myself.
My favorite part of the job are the holiday weekends because it’s so amazing to see how we all work as a team and kick butt to make it an amazing experience. I feel more excited than stressed on those days because we are all in it together.
The effect we have on a person just with a smile or how are you doing can change a person’s day.
Making a Difference One Act at a Time
"The effect we have on someone, just with a smile or a simple 'How are you doing?' can change a person's entire day."
