pairing furloughed or unemployed Veterans with work opportunities with ag-producers across Illinois
For many of our Illinois farmers, COVID-19 has all but eliminated the available labor pool for growing and production. Farm Corps, a partnership of Illinois organizations and agriculture entities, addresses this labor gap by pairing furloughed or laid off veterans with producers across the state of Illinois who have an immediate need for on-the-farm labor.
FARMERS AND PRODUCERS
If you’re an Illinois farmer looking for workers, post your job so we can help connect you with Veterans and furloughed service workers looking for agriculture opportunities.
