We have wrapped up hiring for 2024!
If you are interested in working at Cox Farms next fall, check back here in July 2025!
Below is a list of Fall Festival Positions. All positions are physically demanding, in that these are fast-paced, outdoor jobs that involve standing or moving (and smiling!) for the duration of your shift. Check out the different Fall Festival attractions here.
Cashier:
Cashiers work all over the farm - from Tickets to Cox's Kitchen to the Festival Market and many places in between! Cashiers are interacting with Customers all day long, and should be friendly while working at a quick pace!
Hayride Driver:
Hayride Drivers must be at least 20 years or older with a valid driver’s license. Hayride Drivers must know how to have a LOT of fun while keeping riders safe! Never driven a tractor before? No worries – we’ll teach you!
Slide/Swing Attendant:
Primary responsibilities of Slide and Swing Attendants are making our visitors feel welcome, keeping them safe and enforcing the rules while still having lots of fun on the Slides and Swings.
Greeter/Host:
Whether it’s greeting visitors at the front entrance, hosting group visits, or getting visitors pumped for their hayride, Greeters and Hosts make guests feel welcome and excited about their visit to Cox Farms!
Concessions/Cook:
Lemonade Squeezers, Apple Cider Donut Bakers, Caramel Apple Makers… our Food Team covers a wide range of delicious eats across the farm! Cooks must be at least 18 years old. Employees under 18 can help with food prep, wrapping and running food to get orders filled. Our food team is made up of friendly team players who work in a fast-paced environment.
Actor:
Where else can you be an alien snowboarding out of his crashed UFO? Hayride Actors have "scenes” to entertain visitors as their hayride drives by. "Walkabout” actors give visitors a more up-close and personal interaction.
Parking Lot Attendant:
Parking Lot Attendants guide visitors in and out of the parking lot, assist with parking and provide instruction. Parking Lot Attendants are the first and last employees visitors see during their trip to Cox Farms, so smiles and excellent customer service are crucial!
Pumpkin Sales/Market Stocker:
Pumpkin Sales covers a lot of ground: helping visitors pick out their perfect pumpkin, getting it to their car, unloading new pumpkins and setting up displays. They also help inside the Festival Market, keeping shelves stocked and assisting customers. These employees should be able to lift at least 50+ lbs with a smile!
