Resilient Youth Internship Program Oct 5-Dec 10, 2026
The RYIP is a working farm apprenticeship for young people that centers skill-building, real responsibility, and land-based learning. Youth who come through this program don't get coached on how to present themselves — they get their hands in the soil, they learn how plants grow and how ecosystems repair themselves, they practice showing up for something larger than social approval. Resilience here isn't a mindset we teach. It's something that grows in the body through the actual practice of tending and being tended.
Find a lot more details here: https://www.sunnyjlindley.com/internship_info_2025
Plus, youth receive a $150 stipend at the end of each seasonal session.
2 hours, twice a week, 3 weeks on, 1 week off
Four Seasonal Sessions:
FALL: Oct 5 - Dec 10, 2026
WINTER: Jan 4 - Mar 11, 2027
SPRING: Mar 15 - May 23, 2027
SUMMER 2027 TBD
