2024 Farm Internships: Ten Years of Farm Skills Workshops

This coming year marks Woodlawn’s tenth anniversary hosting farm skills workshops. Beginning in 2015 with three interns who were eager for a WOOFER (World Organization of Organic Farmers) experience, Woodlawn began an experiment that turned in to a program and a passion.

Our interns follow many years of workshops designed for U.S. and other international students who have helped us hone our SlackWorks program. Read on in this blog to learn of the surprises and delights that have accompanied their time learning farm skills on an active farm with an inn, a winery, frequent weddings, and a world where everyday, outside, lies magic.
