What I liked
Through this internship I expanded my knowledge of Environmental Studies- and environmental justice specifically- in a hands-on way that I had not experienced in the classroom. Working on the Green Team is an excellent opportunity to learn more about food accessibility, the history of farming, and the importance of indigenous knowledge, among many other things. Plus, through leading youth workshops on many of the above topics I was able to improve my ability to communicate on nuanced environmental topics. Best of all, it's a really fun job with a great group of people. I would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys working with youth.
