Job Description:

Interested in marketing, social media, the science behind growing organic plants, specifically cannabis?

Fish-based fertilizer is not a new idea. In nature, you see a lot of symbiotic relationships between underwater plants and large schools of fish. It’s the circle of life: plants provide oxygen for healthy fish while at the same time, the fish release – in the form of poop – the nitrogen and essential bacteria that fuel the plants’ growth.

The Foop fertilizer company is harnessing the power of that natural process to create a new kind of organic biostimulent customized for cannabis growers. Using a proprietary form of sodium-extraction technology, Foop fertilizer products allow, for the first time, the large-scale manufacture of a cost-effective super nutrient based on fish poop. The result is a simple, all-natural, 100 percent organic additive that helps plants -- especially cannabis plants -- to grow faster, bigger and result in more robust harvest than ever before.

Foop is seeking paid part time marketing/social media interns for Summer 2018 to assist with our marketing campaigns, social media presence and digital advertising platforms.
