CHS Eastern Farmers Intern Information
Every year CHS Eastern Farmers and CHS do an intern training in March to prepare interns for the summer. The training includes information and expectations for the upcoming summer and ends in a fun event to help get to know the other interns. At the end of the summer interns travel to the CHS Corporate office in the Twin Cities for a wrap-up session. At the wrap-up session interns get to meet CHS employees at the corporate office and learn about CHS as a global company. Intern videos are also shown and awards given to the best videos.
