Farm and Home Hardware is looking for Stock and Yard people to join our existing top-notch team. Established in 1960, we have over 60 years of experience helping our friends and neighbors complete their projects. If you enjoy collaborating closely with a team of dedicated people who offer high end service, then we are a perfect fit for you. We are looking for initiative-takers who would like to grow with a local, family-owned company.

We have built the business by offering service, convenience, and fair pricing to our customers. I would say we are more than a traditional Hardware Store. Over the years we have partnered with key national brands to help offer the best products possible to our communities. One thing that will be evident early on is that we are always looking for a better way to do things, a better product or service to offer to add value to our customer experience. Please feel free to stop in and check us out and then you will see for yourself that we offer something for everyone.

Our Stock and Yard people are an integral part of our customer service team. We are looking for dedicated, driven individuals interested in part time or full-time hours. Shifts vary and while we would like to have open availability, we also understand that many qualified candidates have restrictions that limit the availability. With that we are willing to discuss this opportunity and see if it will work for both Farm and Home and you in your current situation. We have a variety of tasks that are completed by our stock team and are always looking to fill these positions with dedicated people in High School, attending College, and Adults looking for a full-time career.

*Learn how to work with adults as part of a team. Most students can interact well with their peers Sometimes the tough part is building work relationships with adults from their community Developing these lifelong friendships will help prepare you for the future.
