IN-OFFICE GRAPHIC DESIGNER (PACKAGING + DIGITAL DESIGN)

Hours: 10–20 hours/week
Type: Contract, In-Office (contract-to-employee)
Schedule: Flexible hours with consistent, in-office collaboration during scheduled workdays
Compensation: Competitive, based on experience
Location: Local candidates only – in-office position

OUR MISSION

We’re a family-owned garden seed company on a mission to create self-reliance through gardening—helping more people grow their own food, reconnect with nature, and build security for their families.

Design plays a critical role in that mission. Our packaging and digital assets are often the first (and sometimes only) interaction customers have with our brand, so clarity, consistency, and quality matter.

WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS

We’re hiring a detail-driven Graphic Designer to support our creative workload and help us maintain momentum as we grow. This role begins as a contract position and is designed to ensure packaging and eCommerce visuals move forward accurately, consistently, and on time—without breaking established systems or brand standards.

This is not a blank-slate creative role. It’s a production-focused role for someone who takes pride in precision, follow-through, and getting the details right.

This role is in-office so we can collaborate closely, move quickly, and support hands-on onboarding. Strong performance, ownership, and mutual fit can lead to a transition into a permanent employee role over time.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

You’ll be successful in this role if you:

Deliver packaging files that are production-ready with minimal revisions
Create eCommerce assets that are clear, consistent, and conversion-focused
Maintain an organized, accurate, and reliable asset library
Apply feedback quickly and precisely while protecting brand consistency
Communicate clearly and follow through reliably in a collaborative, in-office environment
Work independently while proactively asking questions when context, priorities, or direction are unclear

If you enjoy being the designer others trust to “just get it right,” and you’re comfortable earning responsibility through results, you’ll feel at home here.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Modify and prepare existing packaging files for print production
Create and format digital assets for Amazon, Walmart, and other eCommerce platforms
Build gallery images, infographics, and simple marketing visuals for product listings
Maintain and organize a large library of design and product assets
Work in-office alongside the creative team during scheduled hours
Implement feedback thoughtfully while maintaining strong design consistency

WHO THIS ROLE IS FOR

You’re likely a strong fit if you:

Have hands-on experience with packaging layout and file preparation (especially Illustrator)
Are highly comfortable with Adobe Creative Cloud
Are detail-oriented, organized, and dependable
Can work independently while collaborating in person with a team
Enjoy working within established brand guidelines and systems
Have basic gardening knowledge—you know your basil from your beets
Take pride in ownership, accuracy, and follow-through
Are located locally and able to work in-office consistently

Our values aren’t aspirational—they show up in how work gets done, how feedback is given, and how standards are upheld every day.

WHO THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR

This role is probably not a good fit if you:

Are seeking a remote or fully work-from-home position
Prefer greenfield branding or highly conceptual creative work
Get frustrated working within existing systems or templates
Need constant direction or open-ended creative freedom
Struggle with production accuracy or deadlines

We value clarity over volume and want the right fit on both sides.

NICE TO HAVES (NOT REQUIRED)

Experience creating assets for Amazon or Walmart listings
Familiarity with ClickUp or similar project management tools
Basic video editing skills
Experience using PickFu or other creative testing platforms

WHO WE ARE

We’re a U.S.-based, family-run seed company grounded in three core values: quality in everything, extreme ownership, and humility in all things.

Our team is supportive, kind, and purpose-driven. We collaborate closely, communicate clearly, and celebrate shared wins.
