Deadline Extended for Our Local Food Internship Applications!

Our Local Food internships can be done from almost anywhere in Kansas! Please help spread the word about this great opportunity for meaningful summer work, working to drive the local food movement throughout Kansas. Extended application deadline: Friday, April 20, 2012.

Our Local Food, a program of the Kansas Rural Center, is accepting applications for eight summer internship positions across the state. Internships are open to current college students and recent graduates wanting to learn more about the local food movement and excited to cultivate connections between farmers, businesses, consumers and communities.

Applicants must be able to commit to working a minimum of 20 hours per week during the ten-week internship, which runs from June 1 to August 15. Interns who can dedicate additional time to the internship will gain more from it and have the opportunity be involved in more compelling work. Internships are unpaid, however each intern will receive a $1000 stipend to defray costs at the completion of the 10-week commitment.


To apply, please submit your complete application pack to the appropriate chapter coordinator by April 13:
