Livestock Apprenticeship Application
Glynwood's 9-month Livestock Apprenticeship provides apprentices with a combination of hands-on experience and training in the principles and practices of regenerative, pasture-based production of beef, pork, lamb and poultry products. Livestock apprentices participate in relevant aspects of the HVA classroom curriculum while also receiving separate, targeted training in pasture-based livestock management. Apprentices gain a solid foundation in the competencies and technical skills necessary to work on a small-scale diversified livestock operation.
