Live & Learn on the Farm
Our farmers have over a decade of experience farming, running farm businesses, and teaching beginning farmers. Our farmers understand how difficult it can be to get meaningful experience farming. Every farmer needs a good mentor and we look forward to being that for you. Come learn from the best!
Accommodations
Housing is provided here at Red Barn. The apartment of our farm house is well appointed with a kitchen, two bedrooms, a bathroom, living room, and laundry facilities. These accommodations may be shared by apprentices. Sleeping quarters will be segregated according to varying occupancy and the preferences of the occupants.
Stipend
Apprentices will receive room and board, plus a monthly stipend to be determined by experience and commitment. End of season bonuses reward apprentices that stay for the entire season. Our apprentice season starts in mid-March and ends in mid-November.
Education
Apprentices will receive formal education on organic farming practices and business management. Apprentices will also be invited to attend farm tours around Northwest Arkansas to see the many ways farmers address different circumstances.
