Internship Details:

We have a great opportunity for people interested in learning how a small organic farm can function: from seed to transplant, maintaining crops, composting, fertilizing, turning fields, the organic certification process, harvesting, marketing, and developing a local foods business. Our work is diversified and shifts with the season in a pleasant way.  In addition to vegetable production, our work includes harvesting & processing culinary and medicinal herbs, growing and marketing our annual flowers, and serving a Farm Breakfast on Saturdays.

We require a valid drivers license.  A good attitude and enjoyment of the challenges of hard work is essential to a positive experience.  Our work is outside everyday in all types of weather.  We lift 50 pounds regularly.  We are down on our hands and knees for hours at a time doing work that can be repetitive.  We often work together but also work independently.  We work  8 – 10 hour days.   Physical labor is a constant but aerobic and a fun challenge.

We expect a positive attitude. A good sense of humor is important. An ability to accept and incorporate feedback is necessary. We expect a willingness to work hard, at a brisk pace under challenging conditions, in all types of weather.

Educational Opportunities: In addition to learning on our farm, folks working with us will have the opportunity to attend farm visits with our Foothill Farm Alliance community.

Skills Desired: We are accustomed to working with folks with limited experience and have plenty of patience for learning, but also appreciate skills people bring to the farm. We are happy when people can work independently on a variety of tasks and find/have an inner motivation to do things well. A valid drivers license is required.

Meals: No, we do not provide meals but farmworkers have access to farm fresh produce!

Stipend: We offer hourly pay of $9 - $15 per hour depending on experience.

Housing: Yes, we have housing on the farm including an off grid cabin with screened porch.
