Permaculture Plant Nursery Internships
PERMACULTURE INTERNSHIPS
We're looking for two full-time interns to help us out with all of the tasks that come with an organic farm and homestead.
From the last week of April until Thanksgiving, regular tasks include working in the greenhouse watering & potting up plants, seeding trays, weeding & mulching gardens & propagation beds;
rooting softwood cuttings & collecting seeds; helping customers & perhaps leading tours of the demonstration gardens. We're also constatly working on construction projects & have a few in mind for the upcoming season, including building the entrance to an outdoor stairwell and building a trellis to support fruiting vines on our farmhouse.
You'd be helping with these & learning carpentry skills, along with many other tasks that crop up along the way.
The interns each have their own bedrooms in our farmhouse. We provide all meals, a stellar education on forest gardening, and a weekly stipend of $50.
We'd welcome a couple, but would also be happy to have inspired individuals. Our ideal candidates would be 19 years of age or older, have some background in gardening, organic or otherwise, and a keen interest in growing food and sustainable living.
We work 7-8 hours a day, 5 days a week, and encourage mini-vacations of a few days each month. We live in the heart of the Beaver Valley, which is a UNESCO biosphere reserve with a thriving floodplain ecosystem, and we're across the road from the Beaver River, where we regularly swim (and paddle!) in the summer.
For more information please see our website, Facebook or Instagram, or contact us with any questions.
