Are you interested in farming in the Hudson Valley next season? Join us to learn more about the Hudson Valley Apprenticeship!

Apprentices in The Hudson Valley Apprenticeship (HVA) receive a combination of hands-on farm experience at one of five farms across the region, complemented by paid classroom-based workshops and trainings. This focused curriculum emphasizes practical skill-building for aspiring professional farmers. Positions vary by host farm, but generally run from spring (March/April/May) through fall (September/October/November). Some host farms do offer winter work starting in December.

Participating farms for the 2023 season include Ecological Citizen’s Project at Longhaul Farm (Garrison / Putnam County), Maple View Farm (Poughquag / Dutchess County), Phillies Bridge Farm Project (New Paltz / Ulster County), and Rise & Root Farm (Chester / Orange County), as well as Glywood (Cold Spring / Putnam County).

Join us to learn more about the Hudson Valley Apprenticeship and to network with farm manager-mentors on Thursday, November 10 from 4-5pm. Each farm manager-mentor will share a brief overview of their farm and apprentice opportunities, followed by breakout sessions for Q&A.
