Carlton Plants is a wholesale grower specializing in bareroot trees
(shade, ornamental, and fruit), ornamental shrubs, and rootstocks. We are pleased to announce our Internship
Program for Spring & Summer 2013.
The program is designed to provide professional education and hands on
experience to college students. This is
paid, on the job training that includes exposure to all phases of bareroot
production - from the tissue culture lab or greenhouse to the field and eventually
to the customer. Additionally,
specialized internships in Propagation are available.
Northwest Oregon is a
wonderful place to spend a few months and provides a unique opportunity to
apply the knowledge gleaned from the classroom. Weekends may be used to enjoy
the fabulous recreational activities throughout the Pacific
Northwest.
Carlton Plants has been growing in the Willamette Valley of Oregon for
over 100 years. The nursery now consists
of over 1,750 acres of bareroot fields and approximately 8 acres of propagation
facilities. We are excited at the
prospect of sharing our many years of experience and knowledge with domestic
and international students alike. These
internships will be most applicable to students in Horticulture, Botany, Plant
Pathology, Crop and Soil Science, and Agriculture Education majors.
Deadline to apply for spring 2013 is November 15, 2012; for summer 2013 the deadline is January 15, 2013.
