business upon completion. This is a full time, seasonal, paid position, often over 40 hours per week with 8 weeks off in the summer to balance. All aspects of organic vegetable production including field management, equipment maintenance, irrigation, business management, markets and marketing will be experienced.  During the first season we focus on training you in agronomy and integrated water management skills. The second and third season, you will continue to add to these skills and take on more of a management role. Additionally, we will begin working with you on your own farm by developing a business plan and marketing plan. When you complete the program, you will be fully equipped to open your own small farm operation.
