I currently have a few internship opportunities on my 27-acre paradise non=profit farm & educational centre, Appalachian Institute for Mountain Studies. 100-tree mature heirloom fruit orchard, 2000 variety seedbank, heirloom subsistence maincrop garden, medicinal herb gardens, food forest (the whole place is basically a food forest), rock-terraced Daoist Tea Garden for World Peace, 13 springs/3 creeks, adjoining 18000 acres of National Forest in the second most diverse temperate rainforest in the world. I'm looking for true plant lovers who are experienced gardeners and want to take their plant knowledge to another level. Large ethnobotanical library, beautiful river to swim in, etc. I've worked with Appalachian and Cherokee and other Indigenous elders for 25 years. I call what I do subsistence smallholder gardening-foraging.

Interesting. I saw that the work requirement is 25 hours.

How about start dates? end dates?

Hello! Are you still looking for interns? How about through the winter season? What does the position entail?

Sounds like you have paradise where you are. Would have loved to come gain some more knowledge but just too far away. Maybe someday! Keep up the good work,it's inspiring and what the world needs, a billion more of you.
