New and beginning farmers paired with farm hosts · The 2024 program ran for 5 months; Georgia Organics is winding it down
From farmerservices.georgiaorganics.org/apprenticeship ↗About this program
These first-generation farmers will drive our future farm bills, agricultural practices, and food supply.
To address these matters, in the summer of 2023, Georgia Organics launched an Apprenticeship Program to create a pipeline for new and beginning farmers while supporting a cohort of farm hosts as they increase their business capacity.
Georgia Organics is winding down the 2024 5-month program that paired beginning farmers with farm hosts who trained apprentices in regenerative farming practices and sustainable business techniques.
