1. How did you find out about UpS’s Intern Program?

What things most attracted you?

What herb related knowledge or experience do you have (i.e., classes, apprenticeships, schools, employment, correspondence courses, or personal home study)?

What farming related training do you have (i.e., classes, apprenticeships, employment, school, or personal home study)?

Active farm work is an important part of this program. This includes bending, stooping, squatting, digging, hoeing, lifting, etc. for hours at a time. List any physical injuries, accidents, or weaknesses that might limit your ability to do this work.

Weather can be cold and wet in spring and fall sessions and very hot in the summer. Please list any experience you have had with physically demanding work under these conditions.

Work on the farm involves working in and around a wide variety of plants and grasses. Do you have any known allergies that might limit your ability to work safely in this environment?

Communal living is a major part of this program. This includes sharing bedroom space, communal food purchasing and menu planning as well as housekeeping responsibilities. If you are not comfortable with these arrangements, this program is not for you. What experience do you have in living communally? What are the things you enjoy most about this situation? What do you not enjoy? What experience do you have in resolving conflict in a community setting?

Do you have any special dietary needs? Are you comfortable sharing space with people who may eat meat? Drink alcohol? Have very specific standards for their own diet?

Sharing a living space with other people involved in an intense program requires that particular attention be paid to honoring common space; this includes keeping your personal items in your own room or outdoor camping space, cleaning up after yourself at all meals and respecting an agreed-upon quiet time, etc. Additionally, though we want to welcome your friends and family to visit while you are here, we ask that they do so on weekends and that your housemates, the farm manager and program coordinator are notified ahead of time. Please describe how you feel about the restrictions that we feel are necessary to facilitate a healthy home environment for our students.

Please note that you may have to share a room with another student if you choose indoor accommodations.

Do you desire indoor accommodation?

Are you interested in camping during the 6 week program?
