While it is possible to do both, we are able to offer internships specifically for each area.  The farm internship hours are somewhat flexible.  Farm interns will learn and practice organic farming techniques, integrative pest management, weed management, harvesting and distribution, and many other skills that accompany small-scale arid lands food production. The educational programs are T-W-TH from 8-12. Education interns will teach youth ages K-12 our gardening and nutrition curriculum during our Growing Forward field trip program.

Compensation: While we currently don’t have funding to pay our interns, academic credit is possible and is determined by the home department.  It can be possible to receive elective credit and to do so. An intern would work with Nancy Rodriguez Lorta, nancyr at email.arizona.edu (mailto:nancyr at email.arizona.edu)
