The Ranch is a strong, cohesive community. The setting is quite rural and interns have limited access to travel.
INTERNSHIP OVERVIEW
Community living at the Ranch can be an intense experience. Interns live in a shared space and eat, work and often times spend free time together. Being a part of our community requires tolerance, patience, respect, and openness to new ideas and perspectives. Acceptance to this program entails a commitment to collective responsibility – going the extra mile to assure that all works well. It is extremely important that all potential interns understand that we work hard at the Ranch. We are looking for industrious, conscientious, diligent people who are not fearful of long days and putting their nose to the grindstone.
As a working farm and education center we provide the opportunity for hardworking, conscientious, and responsible individuals to immerse themselves in techniques and technologies related to natural building, animal husbandry, sustainable agricultural, fermentation, homesteading, and community.
Our program aims at providing a balance between hands on instruction and experiential learning that allowsinterns to quickly take on leadership roles in our beautiful kitchen, amongst our hundreds of fruit and nut trees, at one of our evolving building sites, with our playful goat herd, and so much more. Often a life changing experience for participants, interns routinely return year after year becoming part of the Ranch family.
