Each year, OAEC hires a cohort of 6 enthusiastic interns to live and learn at OAEC for approximately 11 months (early February through mid-December). In exchange for 24 hours per week of work, all interns are given a private, cozy place to live, community meals, and use of all OAEC facilities (hot tub, swimming pond, etc). Interns receive free participation in the OAEC Permaculture Design Course, a $750 monthly stipend, and generous vacation and sick leave. Interns take part in the life of the residential community and participate in community cooking rotations. We work hard and play hard! Join us!
Applications are open now through October 15th, 2025.
