The Internship Program at the Philo School/Pharm is a work/study program open to Wwoofers and others. This is beyond
question one of the most beautiful places any where! Interns are here anywhere from 6 - 12 weeks. There is a
10'x24' studio with cooking facilities, hot and cold running water, a refrigerator, and a composting toilet. You can
pitch a tent in the meadow if you wish more privacy. We are solar and organic.
Garden work is most intense in March and April (and help needed the most then). This is also a really spectacular time
of year when we actually have plenty of water. As we move from Spring to summer, there is more carpentry focus with maintenance
in the garden. In the Fall things again gear up in the garden with harvesting and other work.
Work involves organic gardening and cultivation, some building and carpentry, and help during classes - and whatever
else comes up on a farm/school. The work part is 3 days a week, 6 hours a day, Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday.
Attend classes free, get to know the medicinal plants, and learn basic Plant Spirit Medicine communication and research.
Three days a week, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday are free time. The live-in internship is for mature students
who can function well left to themselves. It is strongly encouraged that you bring whatever creative endeavors that
are important to you - drawing, musical insturments, writing and such - that will help to optimize your time here. The
farm is rural, having your own car helps. No cell phone reception but it's a short walk to where it is. Phonecards are
a great idea.
A good natural foods store, Boontberry, is here in the valley and more stores are on the coast. I'll supply you with
basics - rice and produce from the garden and some more, but be prepared to buy some of your own food.
References and a resume are required. Please fill out an application at the bottom of this page.
