Tampa Bay Community Food Systems Internship Opportunity The Tampa Bay Community Food Systems Internship is a collaborative opportunity for students from local colleges and universities to work with community-based organizations to learn about local and global food systems. Coordinators from UF/IFAS Extension Family Nutrition Program, Eckerd College, and USF St. Petersburg match students with sites supervisors from community-based food organizations. The internship focuses on several areas in the food system: Food Production, Distribution, Food Access, Food Justice, Education, Policy, and Resource Recovery. Through instruction with a community organization site supervisor, students are encouraged to develop expertise in the most relevant area of the food system for them, yet also utilize systems thinking to engage and consider the food system as a whole. Interns engage in weekly team site experiences as well as create and present on a capstone project that enhances one or more aspects of the food system in Pinellas County. To be considered for this internship, you can fill out the Food Systems Internship Application.
