Subject: FW: AmeriCorps VISTA position
I wanted to share with TMGs this exciting opportunity for an AmeriCorps VISTA position opening mid-August.

This VISTA would be working in the Knox County Extension office developing "curriculum" or best practices to run a training program in urban ag for young adults. We would
also like for him or her to work alongside leadership at the Knoxville Botanical Garden and Arboretum to help urban farmers grow produce and develop a market for selling in the nearby five points food desert. We are really looking for someone in earnest right
now who would be a good fit, so please pass this along to anyone you think might be a good candidate who might be interested!
