Hi Folks,

I am writing to you on behalf of my coworker, Allison Walent, to request your help in promoting an exciting, new internship at Organic Valley/CROPP Cooperative. 

Attached you will find a one page insert that describes the Farmer Support Program Internship at Organic Valley for the summer of 2013.  We are actively recruiting interns in the following areas:

Michigan (1)

Indiana (2)

Ohio (2)

Vermont (1)

Lancaster County, PA (1)

 

The internship is approximately 10 weeks and will begin on June 10, 2013.  The first week of the internship will be in La Farge, Wisconsin at Organic Valley Headquarters.  Our goal is to provide a dynamic internship in organic agriculture that also provides opportunity for soft skills development. The training while in La Farge, WI will include topics such as:  CROPP History, CROPP Business Structure, introduction to the Departments at CROPP, Soft Skills Trainings (such as Active Listening, Managing Conflict and Time Management).  The remainder of the internship will be in the field conducting farm visits.  Throughout the course of the internship we will offer an additional 2-3 webinars on skills development.  Each intern (25 total interns) will visit approximately 80 farms in their home regions. The application deadline is Friday, May 3.

 

Would you be able to share this opportunity with your farmers? 

 

Thank you for your cooperation, and please feel free to contact Allison Walent (allison.walent AT organicvalley.coop or 608.625.3755) with any questions that you may have.
