The Aspire Project offers hands-on internship and volunteer opportunities designed to empower participants through real-world experience, meaningful responsibility, and community connection. These programs focus on skill development, confidence-building, and personal growth across creative, social, and vocational settings.
Participants can engage in structured internships—such as the VIP Squad—or volunteer within The Aspire Project’s markets, cafés, farms, and special events. Each opportunity is intentionally designed to mirror real workplace environments, helping participants build career readiness while contributing to projects that truly matter.
Internships
Participants enrolled in the Day Enrichment Program at the three-day minimum rate receive added-value experiences that expand learning beyond daily programming:
A week-long immersive experience focused on creativity, leadership development, and social growth.
Inspirational excursions to locations such as Olde Lyme Coastal Farmhouse, Chilmark Respite, and Pound Ridge Cottage & Gardens, offering opportunities for independence-building, relationship growth, and experiential learning in new environments.
Internship
Berry & Bramble Farms is where nature’s wild beauty meets purposeful cultivation. Set among thriving berry bushes and winding brambles, this working farm serves as a living classroom for growth, creativity, and connection.
Participants are involved in every stage of the process—from tending and harvesting to transforming fresh ingredients into artisan baked goods and farm-to-market offerings. The experience blends traditional agricultural practices with creative innovation, encouraging hands-on learning rooted in the rhythms of the land.
More than a farm, Berry & Bramble Farms is a place where community, craftsmanship, and nature come together—offering participants the chance to grow skills, confidence, and a deeper connection to the world around them.
Our internships and volunteer programs offer practical skill-building in supportive, community-based environments.
