Internship Opportunities
Our farm is staffed by our family and friends. We are part of an organization called WWOOF (willing workers on organic farms) which connects people interested in learning about organic farming with the opportunity to live and work with us. We love wwoofers, without them we couldn't farm the way we do, nor would our household be as vibrant. We encourage full season apprenticeships for an in depth experience, but also welcome folks for shorter periods year round.
Interns learn a wide range of skills including greenhouse work, field preparation, seeding, transplanting, weeding, harvesting, beekeeping, composting, tractor safety, going to market, chicken chores, construction projects and kitchen work (commercial food prep, lactic fermentation and canning projects). We always take time to explain the philosophical and/or practical concepts behind what we are doing. We believe that sharing knowledge with the folks who come work with us is one of our most important roles. Being an intern at Earth Sky Time serves as a broad education in sustainable agriculture and communal country living.
It is an exciting time to be a part of the local organic food movement. Let's work together to feed our neighbors and ourselves.
Peace
