Internship Opportunities

Through a partnership with the Southeastern New England Educational and Charitable Foundation (SNEC) and the Westerly Land Trust (WLT), we are proud to announce two paid internship opportunities for Summer 2023. SNEC has partnered with colleges to encourage experiential learning in environmental conservation through an arrangement with Westerly Land Trust. Applying college students have worked with the WLT as interns for the past several years, assisting the organization with projects and activities in Environmental Conservation and other related tasks. This is our second year offering a Sustainable Farming Intern.
