GrowinG Internship Program

The goal of the GrowinG Beginning Farmers and Ranchers in Wyoming program is to provide education, mentoring, and technical assistance to offer beginning farmers and ranchers the knowledge, skills, and tools needed to make informed decisions for their operations and to enhance their sustainability.

The project looks to ensure Wyoming beginning producers are well-informed of risk management alternatives to allow them to take full advantage of existing insurance products and other risk controls by offering training and resources covering various financial management, risk management, enterprise assessment, and risk analysis topics.

All support of the GrowinG Internship Program goes directly towards hands-on learning experiences for aspiring farmers and ranchers in Wyoming. Currently, the cost to directly support one intern for 10 weeks is $5,000, not including program overhead or the time, housing, and food generously provided by our host farms and ranches. Our goal is to be able to fund five interns from our Giving Day campaign!

Thank you for supporting the future of farming and ranching in Wyoming!
