Internship information
General Farm Description: MOFGA’s Apprenticeship Program is targeted for young adults, with or without previous farming experience, but all are welcome to apply. Apprenticeships may begin any time during the year, and last for any duration, but most farmers are looking for apprentices who will commit for the entire growing season (early March through late October). The usual apprenticeship is an immersive practicum involving labor in return for room and board, instruction, financial compensation and experience.CRAFT Member Farm? No
