Internships
We offer unpaid internships spring, summer and fall. We welcome Chico State students focusing on Plant & Soil Science, Ag Business, Ag Education, Nutrition and other related majors to intern with us for a semester or two. Internships are a great way to give students hands on experience in all aspects of organic vegetable production. Student interns receive college credit for hours worked and can also take home vegetables from the field each week. The OVP offers four different internships: Vegetable Production, Aquaponics, Biogas Management, and Mushroom Production. Email Scott Grist, sgrist@csuchico.edu, for an application.
Volunteers
We are always overjoyed to have extra help from community members! Being a CSU, Chico student is not a requirement to volunteer although you must be over 18 years of age. In exchange for hours worked, we offer extra produce to take home with you that day. This is a great opportunity to get out in the sunshine, learn about organic farming practices, and bring home some yummy organic produce! Email Scott Grist, sgrist@csuchico.edu, if interested.
