Fox Haven Learning Center uses its beautiful natural campus of woodlands, streams, farmland, orchard, barn, and dairy parlor for educational programs for adults and children. Fox Haven’s classes encompass a wide range of topics spanning foraging for wild edible foods, gardening, cultivating mushrooms, herb production, and cooking classes, to personal health.  Fox Haven’s Learning Center proudly continues to provide the region’s first Fresh Herb Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program. With pick-up locations and hands-on classes offered in Frederick, Baltimore, and D.C., we strive to engage and educate a broad audience on the uses of herbs.

Our primary opportunities for students to engage in an internship experience with us are working directly with the farm team and working with our program coordinator/marketing manager. 

• Working on the farm might include tasks such as climate-smart bed/soil prep, planting, harvesting, maintenance, and compost management. The intern/volunteer can also facilitate any research projects that we have the capacity to host.
• Working with our program coordinator/marketing manager might include graphic design, social media content, marketing tasks, being present to ensure programs run smoothly, and doing outreach events.
