Farm & Educational Opportunities

We have the following opportunities available at Nature's Roots Farm.  If you are interested please send us an email at [email protected] to request additional information. 

Semester Abroad on the Farm 

We offer a 6 month Semester Abroad on the Farm.  This is considered an abroad program as it is a complete lifestyle change outside of every day living in our current society.  Be ready to get your hands dirty, your mind clear and your heart full. 

You will learn how to effectively manage the following:

• 100% Grass-Fed Cows (Dairy) 
• Pasture Raised Chickens (Egg Layers & Meat Birds)
• Forest-Fed Pigs
• Chemical Free Pasture Management 
• Forestry & Woodworking 
• Gardens & Orchards 
• Permaculture Practices (symbiotic nature between animals and plants)

As part of this program, you will also learn how to start a farm including business setup, sales, marketing, building a customer base and more. There will be weekly study/discussion groups and a large learning library that you can use during your stay.  Housing and food are included (everything we grow / sell on the farm). This program will allow you to experience a full "season" on the farm. At the end of the program, you will have the opportunity to partner with us to begin your own enterprise on or in connection with the farm. 

Stipend: $150/month (+$300 bonus @ completion of program)

Semester Dates: Apr 11, 2021- October 30, 2021

Application Process: Accepting applications Feb 1 - Mar 1.  If selected for consideration, we will schedule an on farm visit.  A final decision will be made by Mar 31.

Nature's Roots Farm has an open door policy and welcomes all of our wonderful patrons to visit the farm and deepen their relationship with where their food really comes from. Please call us or email us to setup a day/time to come for a tour (Saturdays are our preferred day).

Referral Program

Refer a friend and get $10 off your next order. We will give a $10 product credit per referral once that person has placed their first order.
