training the next generation of farmers

Rogue Farm Corps’ Farms Next Internship Program provides beginning farmers and ranchers entry-level training in sustainable agriculture through an innovative cooperative education program on numerous commercial farms in Southern Oregon’s Rogue Valley.

Student interns participating in the Farms Next Internship Program live and work full time on a host farm for an entire growing season, receiving ongoing instruction and learning in-depth skills unique to the host farmer’s operation.  A companion classroom component, farm tours  and discussion circles will broaden the experience and expose student interns to the vast array of knowledge and expertise in our farming community.
