“Great community of workers who really care about each individual. I also got to see and interact with people in my community like never before, especially considering Covid.”

Farmstand and Marketing Intern

August 2019 - December 2019 South Burlington, VT
“I really enjoyed interning at Common Roots my junior year because I got to experience working at a non-profit and learn from great people! I had many different responsibilities as an intern which allowed me to figure out what tasks I enjoyed doing in a professional setting. ”
