Part-time project manager, Greenhorns — Apply by May 30 for priority consideration

Greenhorns is a 16-year-old non-profit organization. Greenhorns creates multi-media and educational experiences to enliven the lives of new farmers and agrarians. This includes film, radio, workshops, panels, exhibits, brochures, posters, panels, maps etc.

Please familiarize yourself with the work that we do, and send us a resume and cover letter to [email protected]. We suggest you come for a weekend to ‘meet the place’ and the people involved to see if it is a fit. Remember this is a super rural place, and the work we are doing is intersectional by nature: agriculture/art/education/activism/local economy/grassroots media—so there are many overlapping skillsets and types of people involved, getting along with people is a big part of the job.
