VYCC Food & Farm Program - Project Lead
The Farm @ VYCC is hiring for several AmeriCorps positions!
The Vermont Youth Conservation Corps’ Food and Farm Program is a dynamic youth
development, diversified agriculture and food access initiative. We believe in the power that food has to connect us to the land, our community, and each other. We engage young people in organic farming and culinary education on our historic 400-acre campus in Richmond, Vermont where we grow organically certified vegetables and pasture- raised chickens that are distributed to more than 400 families through our nationally recognized Health Care Share program.
Project Leads (7 positions)
Project Leads serve on the farm from freezing March mornings, through sweaty July days, until crisp October evenings. They serve out in the fields, in greenhouses, in the kitchen, and jump in to problem solve the daily challenges of the farm. Project Leads bring their adaptability, commitment, and passion for food & farming to the farm program.
