Internship Details:

One-Month Summer Blocks are opportunities for those who are interested in taking their academic understanding of small scale farming and apply them out in the field for an intense but short-term experience. Summer block participants will be incorporated into our production plan, and will work under the supervision of our field staff and 7-month apprentices. You will gain experience with propagation, cultivation, harvest, wash-pack, and marketing/deliveries. This program is designed to provide participants with an understanding of the kinds of follow up opportunities that can round out your readiness to farm. Summer Blocks are great for GAP students, or for those hoping to participate in the WWOOFing program. Participants can register from 2-weeks to three months. Fee is $750/month and $400/2-weeks.

Meals: No, however participants are encouraged to harvest from the field for their meals.
