A season at the Omega Institute offers a unique opportunity for hard work, personal growth, spiritual exploration, community building and transforming lives. Each year 400 staff members with diverse backgrounds join Omega to work and grow alongside like-minded people.

Benefits also include a small stipend, housing in the dorms or tents, wholesome meals and access to campus facilities, concerts and dances. Positions are available from April through October for the entire season or for a minimum of seven weeks. If you are creative, enthusiastic, responsible, willing to learn and are seeking ways to make our world more healthy and humane, consider joining the Omega team! eOmega.org

• Are you interested in learning how food can bring health and healing to individuals and our world? The Omega FoodWorks team staffs the kitchen, the dining hall and the Omega Café using high-quality products and garden fresh produce to serve more than 14,000 guests each season.
