Job DescriptionDescription: Overview: Glynwood’s Livestock Apprenticeship program is for beginning farmers who are ready to pursue a career raising livestock and want to increase their farming knowledge and skills. Apprentices gain a solid foundation in the skills necessary to work on a small-scale diversified livestock operation. Apprentices will go beyond gaining hands-on experience and learning technical skills through working as a team member to manage Glynwood’s Animal Welfare-Approved livestock operation. The 9-month Livestock Apprenticeship aims to enhance the apprentice's understanding of the principles and practices of regenerative, pasture-based production of beef, pork, lamb and poultry products. The Glynwood Apprenticeship is an intensive vocational training program. Apprentices work full-time in the pastures on the livestock team and are an integral part of daily livestock care which includes feeding, watering, and managing all species on pasture. Beyond gaining hands-on experience and learning technical skills as a team member, apprentices receive significant educational support including extensive in-field training in regenerative, rotationally grazed livestock production; complete assessments of their skills and progress towards program goals; and a 60-hour classroom curriculum. All of this is built into the full time schedule. Apprentices are expected to support Glynwood’s culture of philanthropy and may be asked to contribute to story-telling projects or events led by our development and communications team.
