Summer Youth Internship

Please note: applications for our Summer 2023 Youth Internship program are currently CLOSED. We will open applications again in the spring of 2024!

Our Summer Youth Internship is a paid job opportunity for youth age 14 and older! We seek to empower youth through meaningful mentorship and opportunities to learn job and life skills. 

Youth Interns spend their time working on the farm, running farm share pick-ups, cooking, and attending workshops with guest speakers on topics such as leadership, personal finance, public speaking, resume writing, and more!
