- Supporting MSU Extension in offering business planning workshops in Bozeman (see https://cfacmontana.org/planning-for-on-farm-success-bozeman.html)
- Planning on-farm field days geared towards farm interns and new farmers for Summer 2015
- Developing opportunities to encourage local investment in farm and food businesses in Western Montana
- Planning development of a statewide FarmLink site to serve as a one-stop clearinghouse for beginning farmers, land access, and internship/mentorship opportunities
As an intern, you will have the opportunity to focus in on one of these projects or assist with multiple projects. To apply, email annie@missoulacfac.org with your resume and a brief cover letter outlining the project(s) in which you’re interested and any additional relevant information not covered in your resume.
