Farm managers are in demand across California. Our job is to equip motivated and talented farmworkers for these vital and highly paid positions. Your job – whether worker or employer – is to get connected.

The California Farm Academy’s Beginning Farm and Ranch Manager Apprenticeship is registered with the California Division of Apprenticeship Standards and combines two years of paid on-the-job training and instruction. Participants graduate at the journeyman level.

Operations seeking high-caliber talent or who have identified existing stellar workers can partner with us and be confident in the knowledge, professionalism, and leadership skills our graduates obtain.
