Hello & thank you for your interest in the Fiona’s Forest Apprentice program!

As I’m sure you can imagine, we have received several inquiries about this program. However, to ensure that each apprentice has a quality experience, space is limited to 12 people. Six apprentices will be committed to the 1st Sunday and Monday of each month while the other group of 6 apprentices will be committed to the 3rd Sunday and Monday of each month. Within your application, you must address which group you are applying for.

We ask that all interested parties apply

(whether you have participated in the program previously or not).

To be eligible, you must have 100% availability for the given dates. Because, we do not charge for this program (rather, we exchange labor for knowledge), 100% attendance is required. If you are unable to attend any given date, we reserve the right to fill your spot with another applicant at any point of the program.

The application process:

Please submit your completed application (see attached) and essay to [email protected] by March 31st 2026.

The program will begin on May 3rd and will continue through November 2026 (weather permitting).

Due to holidays and potential weather, the November Apprentice weekend will combine both groups into one. We will all meet on the 1st & 2nd of November 2026 as one big happy family.
