Full Circle Farm is excited to provide interns with the opportunity to learn the
inner workings of our commercial agriculture business.
The farm is situated along Griffin Creek and the Snoqualmie River, about thirty
miles east of Seattle, near the town of Carnation, Washington (of powdered milk
fame). To our west, the farm is close enough to Seattle to spend a day or a just an
evening enjoying its many activities. To our east lie the Cascade Mountains and the
variety of outdoor activities they provide - from hiking and boating to biking and
climbing. Our interns will enjoy the many benefits of this beautiful rural area.
Through the demanding FCF internship program, participants who are fully engaged,
challenging themselves both mentally and physically will reap the benefits of their
efforts.
As an intern you will experience many aspects of our commercial produce farm. You
will report to work and join our crew right away. Learning is achieved through
experience. You will realize 10 hour days bunching greens, sitting on the
transplanter, washing carrots, or packing CSA boxes. You will come to understand
and appreciate the excitement that occurs when things do not go as planned (as they
almost never do in farming). You will return home each night with a feeling of
exhaustion and gratitude with all that occurred throughout the day. You will walk
away from Full Circle with the knowledge needed to start your own farm.
