Sustainability Student Farmer Summer Internship

tudent farmers play a vital role in all aspects of vegetable production at Book & Plow from improving infrastructure, greenhouse seeding, and crop care, to harvest, post-harvest handling, and community outreach.

We also go on field trips to area farms and enjoy crew lunches throughout the summer.
