Youth Employment and Enrichment Application
Youth Enrichment and Employment Program:
​
Growing High Point’s Youth Enrichment and Employment Program (YEE) is designed to offer youth ages 14-20 an employment opportunity to learn about the fields of urban agriculture and food entrepreneurship while also developing skills that will help them in their future careers.
​
During this six-month program (April-October), YEE employees will spend at least 5 hours a week being mentored by GHP staff as they discover the importance of a robust local food system, nutrition as it relates to improving their health, and making an impact on their community. The YEE Program also incorporates enrichment activities such as field trips to community gardens and events. YEE employees work on our farms, in the food hub and on Growdega, our mobile market, as well as doing other various tasks.
