2025 High School Field Crew Internship

This unpaid internship is a great chance for you to get hands-on experience working on a busy farm. The internship is open to high school students (ages 14 to 18). Our farm is small, which means we use every bit of space to grow veggies, and most of the work is done by hand. It’s a great way to learn about farming while getting a feel for what it’s like to work on a real farm.

As an intern, you’ll get hands-on experience in all kinds of farm work, like planting, harvesting, and packing produce. While these sessions are running, we’re harvesting produce for our farmers market, farm stand, food pantry donations, and our CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) sharers. We’re a small farm, but we grow a lot of vegetables. Interns help us harvest hundreds of pounds of cucumbers, tomatoes, and more each week.

We also want to make sure you leave with a well-rounded understanding of our food system. Each day during break we host educational discussions about topics such as organic farming, sustainability, farm finances, and more. You can even guide some of the topics based on your interests!

Internship Dates & Schedule

The internship lasts 4 weeks, working on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 8am-12pm. You’ll need to be available for the entire 4-week period. Here are the two terms you can choose from in 2025:

• Term 1: July 8 – July 31

Each day will include a break, and we’ll stop at noon for lunch. You’re welcome to join us for lunch if you’d like, but it’s not required. Just keep in mind that when you apply, you’re committing to the full schedule for the whole term.
