ARE you outstanding in your field? If so, you could put yourself to the test in the unique role of a \u2018pasty farmer\u2019.<\/p>\n

Ginsters\u00a0is looking for someone to take on some unusual paid work experience, with responsibilities including looking after the\u00a0locally sourced\u00a0potatoes and onions that go into its pasties.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The unique work opportunity, at Hay Farm in Cornwall, will see the applicant collaborate with the team to sow and cultivate the veg that goes into Cornish pasties.<\/p>\n

As well as finding out about the more 'innovative' farming techniques like singing lullabies to crops, being a human scarecrow and managing a \u2018team\u2019 of worms to ensure only the best quality soil.<\/p>\n

Sarah Babb at\u00a0Ginsters, which is advertising the work experience role for Spring 2024 for which applications open October, 9, said: \u201cWith the opening of our unique pasty farmer work experience with our partners at Hay Farm, we\u2019re hoping to give the lucky applicant the chance to get stuck into farming life.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ll get the hands-on experience of the effort that our amazing Cornish farmers put into producing our locally sourced veg.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new role follows research by the brand which found many city-dwellers would love to get their hands dirty down on a farm growing vegetables.<\/p>\n

With more than half (56%) loving the idea of escaping to the countryside and quitting the day job in favour of a more \u2018wholesome\u2019 life.<\/p>\n

The poll of 2,000 adults found almost two in five (37%) love the thought of growing their own produce.<\/p>\n

And more than a third (36%) would like to get closer to nature and truly understand where their food comes from, from field to fork.<\/p>\n

Just over four in 10 (41%) believe farmers are one of the hardest-working professions, with 37% not sure they have got the skills to thrive working with farm vegetables.<\/p>\n

Sarah Babb from\u00a0Ginsters, which has released its new TV advert starring a farmer called Merryn who sings lullabies to crops and acts as a human scarecrow added: \u201cOne thing is for sure \u2013 the lucky candidate will most definitely know how our veg is grown once their work experience has ended.\u201d<\/p>\n

The one-off role\u2019s job description said applicants should be willing to get hands, face, arms,\u00a0knees\u00a0and toes dirty on a real Cornish farm \u2013 as well as be prepared to learn lyrics to vegetable lullabies.<\/p>\n
