Farm Business Accelerator Project Manger

The Northern Colorado Foodshed Project (Foodshed Project), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, is hiring a part-time Program Manager to support the implementation of our Farm Business Accelerator Program. This position is responsible for managing the day-to-day, on-the-ground activities of the program, including technical support and outreach. 

The Accelerator is a 3-year program supporting beginning farmers by building a bridge between initial on-farm training and business viability. We provide low-cost access to everything needed to establish and manage a successful farm business: land, water, infrastructure, business education through a partnership with CSU Extension’s Building Farmers Program, technical support, mentorship, and marketing assistance.

This is a part-time position and reports to the Executive Director. While hours are currently estimated at 15 per week, there is the capacity for growth in hours and responsibilities for the right candidate. 

Ideal candidates will be passionate about local food, farming and creating innovative solutions to local food access and production!
