Food & Farm Apprentice program

engages youth and young adults in long-term mentorship,

education, and skills development. Potential Apprentices must first successfully complete a session of

Raíces de Tradicíon y Salud before applying for an apprenticeship. We host 2 to 4 apprentices at any

given time, based on interest, staff capacity, and the availability of funding. Current and past

apprentices have assisted with farm production, coordinated produce sales at area farmers’ markets,

and helped develop value-added farm products. Apprentices also receive public health education,

business and marketing education, and life skills training. Apprentices are provided ample

opportunity to develop entrepreneurial and leadership skills, pursue their own special research

project, engage with community experts and professionals, and are provided a stipend to support their

efforts.
