Five-Week Farm to Table Externship Schedule
Ten Days in the North Fork Valley
- You and your classmates are divided into small groups, each with its own focus farming or wine-making.
- Work half the day in your small group with your host farmer.
- In the late afternoon/evening, the whole class led by instructors and local chefs cook together using the freshly harvested products.
- You spend one day with your small group and host farmer at local farmers' markets like Aspen and Crested Butte.
- You will have the perhaps unsettling, but ultimately enlightening opportunity to witness a lamb being slaughtered.
- The lamb will be hung overnight and slowly cooked the next day with freshly picked vegetables and herbs, resulting in a true feast for 100 guests on a farm setting.
Six Days in Boulder County
- Back into small groups to work on one of four local farms.
- Work one day in your small group with your host farmer.
- You spend one day with your small group and host farmer at the Boulder County Farmers Market.
