DeLano Farms Internship

The DeLano Farms Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Intern position is a three to five month (May-September) full-time position (40 hrs/week) with responsibilities in all farm production related activities including tillage, planting, cultivation, harvest, distribution. We will be hiring two (2) interns for this season. This is a demanding and broadly diverse farming position that links college education theory with real world practice. Ideally, this internship will enable interns to: (a) integrate and use their knowledge and skills from the classroom, (b) discover where further competence is needed, (c) take steps to gain that competence under educational supervision, and (d) become better acquainted with the types of work settings in which such competence can be applied. In addition significant contact with CSA shareholders and KNC staff and visitors demands interpersonal skills and communication abilities. The Delano Farms Crew reports to the DeLano Farms Manager of the Kalamazoo Nature Center and works closely with all KNC staff.
