We grow large quantities of a wide variety of vegetables with organic methods, placing a high value on sustainability. We emphasize hand labor and techniques including biointensive, "wild" gardening and permaculture. Qualified interns will have previous gardening experience and be excited about teaching others, coordinating projects and working cooperatively. Garden activities will vary depending on the time of year, but may include sheet mulching, soil preparation, sowing and saving seed, transplanting, composting, weeding, plant propogation, harvesting, food preservation, greenhouse management, and other skills. In summer we start early every day to "beat the heat".
Positions available March through October.
