SUMMER CAMP 2023 EDUCATOR
We are hiring for two educator positions for our summer camp programs for 2023. Our summer programs provide an intimate, dynamic and flexible farm experience for campers. New for 2023 we are adding an Outdoor Skills Program. The camp day is broken up into 3 areas of focus: livestock education, nature art and outdoor skills.
We are hiring for an educator for our Outdoor Skills Program (weeks 1, 5 and 6) and an educator to assist in leading our farm animal program (flexible weeks). While there will be a training day in spring for all educators, previous experience with large animals is preferred for the farm animal program educator. Previous experience teaching children is required for both positions.
To apply, please submit a resume and cover letter.
Volunteer opportunities
By contributing time and talent, our volunteers help the farm and our educational programs grow. We attract a diverse and truly interesting group of people, united by their passion to learn about and help our natural habitats and our food system.
Internship opportunities
Interns learn about our food system, horticulture, as well as animal husbandry of sheep, goats, chickens (egg and meat), rabbits and honeybees. Small scale growing of both vegetable and cutting flowers, land stewardship and habitat maintenance are pivotal to all of the work that is done at Henny Penny Farm.
