Farmer/Educator (Part-Time), Deaver Wellness Farm at Lankenau Medical Center – Greener Partners

Posted by Greener Partners on March 17, 2026

This is a part-time position primarily based at the Deaver Wellness Farm located at Lankenau Medical Center in Wynnewood, PA. The Farmer/Educator is responsible for assisting the Farmer Manager with the agricultural and educational components of the Farm. Work hours will be Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 7am-2pm.

Established in 2015, the Delema G. Deaver Wellness Farm (DWF) is a joint project of Lankenau Medical Center and Greener Partners. We believe that food is medicine and that increasing access to fresh food promotes health and equity. The Farm is a living lab for learners of all ages and backgrounds, offering opportunities to investigate and discover the interdependencies of farm ecosystems and public health. In particular, we focus on facilitating discovery-based learning with school-aged youth that inspires personal connections to growing, preparing, and eating fresh fruits and vegetables.

Understanding the multidimensionality of food insecurity and its function as a social determinant of health, the Farm also operates as a fresh food resource for Lankenau patients most affected by structural inequities. Annually, the Farm produces over 4,000 pounds of vegetables, all of which is distributed at no-cost to over 800 Lankenau patients. The Farm and its programs aspire to: increase patient access points to fresh food; highlight food insecurity as a social determinant of health; work with medical professionals to deepen and supplement their understanding of food insecurity as it relates to health; and influence a shift in conversation between patients and providers when it comes to nutrition and healthy eating.
