Who We Are & About This Role
Since 1946, Blake’s Orchard & Cider Mill has been a cornerstone of Michigan agriculture and agritourism — an 80-year family operation with deep roots in Armada and a genuine growth ambition. We make world-class hard and sweet cider, operate tasting rooms and retail across four locations, and welcome thousands of guests to our farms each year.
The Farm & Industrial Equipment Mechanic plays a critical role in keeping Blake’s operations running efficiently by maintaining and repairing our fleet of heavy-duty trucks, tractors, agricultural equipment, and small engine machinery. This position is responsible for diagnostics, preventative maintenance, repairs, fabrication support, and helping ensure all equipment remains safe, reliable, and production-ready year-round.
Blake’s offers a large, fully functioning mechanic shop equipped to support daily operations and long-term equipment maintenance needs.
If you enjoy diagnosing mechanical issues, working with diesel and agricultural equipment, and taking ownership of keeping operations moving — we’d love to hear from you.
