The Organic Center is committed to growing a skilled, diverse, and community-driven workforce that will help shape the future of the organic sector. Through our internship and fellowship programs, students and emerging professionals gain hands-on experience in research translation, community engagement, science communication, and project development. 

Interns play a meaningful role in advancing The Organic Center’s mission. They help turn complex scientific findings into accessible resources, strengthen research partnerships, and expand the tools available to consumers and educators. Their contributions deepen our impact, broaden our reach, and ensure that our work continues to evolve alongside the needs of the organic movement. 

Project Deliverables 

Our interns and fellows produce science-based tools to share the benefits of organic agriculture with the public. Resources developed so far include: 

• Social media toolkits and communication assets 
• A community recipe collection highlighting cultural food traditions and the benefits of organic ingredients 
• A gardening education resource guide for urban communities 
• Research summaries, fact sheets, and outreach materials
