Be a Voice for Young Farmers Join NYFC’s Speakers Bureau to help tell the story of America’s next farming generation. In the next year, we’ll be reaching out to press and elected officials and we need farmers who want to share their experiences.

Hello,
After almost 35 years as a leading sustainable agriculture research organization, The Land Institute in Salina, Kansas is seeking progressive-thinking, tractor-ready agriculturists. Greenhorns who can operate field equipment, hand harvest and generally support all aspects of our perennial polyculture seed development work should inquire about employment with our manager. We interact with all types of people and require open-minded, highly flexible personalities to maintain our team culture. Media savvy is also a great help as we are documented throughout the year by various regional and national educational and news organizations.
Again, we really need to move beyond the current status-quo farming mindset of the mid-west. We are progressive, growing and highly visible around the world. Our funding is all from private donors. We strive to create a pleasant yet professional working environment and maintain a well-kept grounds at all times to present to potential donors.
