    We are hiring two positions, a full-time one-year Gleaning Coordinator VISTA based in Indianapolis and a part-time Area Gleaning Coordinator based in Southwest Indiana.  Details about the jobs and information on how apply can be found on our website at https://endhunger.org/indiana/.  Questions?

    Seeking applicants for Monroe County Fellowship Coordinator...apply by 12/30:

    We've run the Hoosier Beginning Farmer Fellowship for two years...and thanks to generous support from the city of Bloomington and the National Young Farmers Coalition, we are able to tailor our Fellowship program to focus on BIPOC farmers in the Monroe County area.  We are also able to offer our Fellows $5,000 as compensation for their participation in the Fellowship.

    ​The Monroe County Fellowship Coordinator will oversee the administration and execution of the Fellowship program. They will be given a broad array of day-to-day tasks to ensure the Fellowship program runs efficiently, and will be asked to participate in bigger-picture discussions to help improve future Fellowship offerings.

    • Passionate farmer or farm advocate
    • Lives in or near Monroe County, and can attend five meetings in person
    • Self starter
    • Collaborator, who wants to work closely with HYFC board and the Fellows
