GeoGreens offers an unpaid, interactive internship in hydroponics while working within our model and toward our core mission. This internship provides an opportunity for learning all aspects of our hydroponics system by working directly with the owner, and seasonal, part-time hydroponic staff, to manage our state-of-the-art indoor warehouse farming operation. Interns should be committed to serving the mission and goals of GeoGreens, while GeoGreens works with interns to develop and reach their own learning objectives and goals.
Interns will gain experience in hydroponic farming and food safety compliance. Daily and weekly tasks include, but are not limited to,
Interns will receive ongoing mentoring and training based on their level of desire to succeed within the field and position. We are only able to provide unpaid internships; however, we work with schools to determine grant opportunities to fund internships (if possible) or provide course credit, and would be more than willing to provide a recommendation for future endeavors. Please note, our program can and will transition to a paid internship with the right fit of applicant.
Interns should be pursuing a degree in water resource management, sustainable energy, environmental studies, horticulture, indoor cultivation, or show/have a specific interest in sustainability and farming. Excellent communication, interpersonal and leadership skills are required. A strong attention to detail and safety compliance are critical.
Internships shall be ongoing including and based on the intern’s availability, and more importantly, their immediate success within their day-to-day schooling. Schedules are flexible during normal hours of operation with a minimum of 10 hours/week desired.

Ready to get your mind blown?
Please drive to Mill One – Building C at the front entrance. Once onsite, please contact our office using the intercom and someone will come to pick you up and bring you to our space
We’ll talk you through the history of the building and the history of GeoGreens and how the two came together to forge our unique farm. We’ll also run through some of the boring stuff as the farm is an operational food production site, so we require everyone who visits to follow our safety and sanitation guidelines.
We hit the changing rooms where we whip on hair nets, and important white lab coats. We’ll also show you how to wash your hands.
Once done, you’ll hear about how we sow our seeds, learn what substrate we use & discover how we trick our seeds into thinking they’re in soil to get them to germinate.
When we make our way into the farm, you’ll get a chance to sample our crops while your guide rattles on about our lighting , irrigation and harvesting processes. Don’t worry though, there’ll be plenty of time to take pictures of our farm all dressed up in neon pink lighting.
We’ll make sure that you all get a salad to take home or a punnet of your favourite crop.
Concluding the tour we will help you to remove all of the protective geared supplied and guide you back to the front entry
