2025 Agronomy Interns

Welcoming our Newest Team Members

At Premier Cooperative, we’re committed to growing future leaders in agriculture and business, and that starts with hands-on learning. This summer, we’re proud to welcome a new class of interns who are gaining experience across several key areas of our cooperative.

Our agronomy interns are out in the field, learning about crop health, soil science, and precision agriculture alongside our experienced agronomy team. They’re getting a firsthand look at what it takes to support our growers throughout the season.

In the office, our accounting intern is diving into the financial side of our operations, learning how accurate reporting and smart planning keep our cooperative running smoothly and efficiently.

Our energy intern is gaining insight into how we deliver propane, fuel, and support services to homes, farms, and businesses across the region, an essential part of powering our communities.

And our retail marketing intern is helping tell the story of Mount Horeb Do It Best, learning how we engage customers, promote our services, and strengthen our brand.

Each intern brings energy, curiosity, and a fresh perspective to our team. Throughout the summer, they’ll be involved in real projects, guided by mentors, and exposed to the full scope of our cooperative’s work.

We’re proud to support their growth, and excited to see what they’ll accomplish!

The challenge is that no two dairies have the same answer.
