In the Book of Genesis, Noah became a farmer after the Flood.
Genesis 9:20 says that Noah, described as a man of the soil, planted a vineyard after leaving the Ark. Many English translations render the description as “Noah began to be a man of the soil” or simply identify him as a farmer. The passage then recounts that he drank wine made from the vineyard and became drunk.
This detail occurs after the covenant and the rainbow, when the family has begun life again on the renewed earth. It is separate from Noah’s earlier work building the Ark. The Genesis text never calls Noah a carpenter as his occupation, although the Ark’s construction naturally leads many retellings to associate him with woodworking.
Noah’s vineyard episode also introduces the story of his sons’ reactions to his uncovered state. That later incident is one reason the narrative shifts from the Flood itself to questions about family relationships, conduct, and the future generations descended from Noah.
