The GROWMARK System Announces Class of 2023 Summer Interns
The GROWMARK/FS System is pleased to welcome its newest class of interns for the 2023 experience. 74 interns were selected during a rigorous application process and are now working hands-on at GROWMARK and FS company locations across North America.
“We are excited to continue our internship programs with participants at GROWMARK Inc., GROWMARK retail and subsidiaries, and FS member cooperatives throughout North America,” said GROWMARK Member and Student Recruiting Manager Amie Hasselbring. “Students will have the opportunity to develop their professional experience and expand their networks with both peers and industry experts. The programs continue to be a pipeline for early career talent into the System by providing valuable hands-on experience.”
There are two tracks: the GROWMARK Interns are exposed to accounting, marketing, and product and service-related activities. Each intern will complete a business-related project and deliver a presentation on their project at the conclusion of their internship. Interns in the Exploring Agriculture program will be focused on operations, equipment & technology for scouting, assisting with facility and equipment maintenance & repair, and building professional relationships with FS locations and customers while learning the different products and services the GROWMARK System provides.
