Job Description

We are an exciting, growing company creating a new industry in the Philadelphia area. We install attractive and functional fruit & vegetable gardens that yield high-quality produce in our clients backyards. Our mission: Share the magic of homegrown food.

We are looking for a Social Media & Marketing Intern through the summer months, May - August.

Our install crews build the gardens, and our maintenance team plants and maintains them. We call it full service food gardening, and it has allowed us to deliver successful gardening experiences and change lives for hundreds of clients in the Philadelphia area over the last 7 years.

This position is an opportunity to work alongside our Marketing Manager and the rest of our employees connecting Backyard Eats with its current and future customers. We have a lot of needs both in social media management and traditional digital and print advertising, and are looking for a jack-of-all trades who is eager to dip their toes into many realms of the field.

You will learn a lot about working in a small, growing business, with all its associated fun & challenges, as you help co-invent Backyard Eats.

There is the potential for being hired on full time after the internship is up..

Schedule: This is a full-time, seasonal position. From May through August, the position would be Monday-Friday, roughly 8:30am - 4:30am. Occasionally, we will ask you to work a few hours on the weekends. Start & end dates are flexible, but should be during that general timeframe.
