Project Spotlight
In collaboration with the Santa Rosa Junior College Foundation, we’ve established the Pine Cone Foundation Internship Program at Shone Farm. Our current endowment allows for three interns to be hired, and paid a living wage, each semester to learn and acquire farming and animal husbandry experience while they earn their degrees.
