Hi Martin,
I just had a lovely conversation with Eric Payseur, the Organic Transition Manager with COG, about a position with COG as a Program Coordinator for their Regenerative Organic Oat Program. It appears that they are having difficulty finding someone to fill the role, and the growing season is quickly approaching.
I couldn't help but think that there may be some students at the U of M that might be interested in this part-time position. Would you consider distributing the position summary to anyone you think might be interested?
All the best,
Will Bailey-Elkin, M.Sc.
Project Manager, Lake Winnipeg Basin Project
