JOIN THE HOOSIER YOUNG FARMERS COALITION
We are a grassroots and member-driven organization focused on local, state, and national food and farm issues, right here in Indiana. Wondering who can join HYFC? Everyone! We want young farmers (that's anyone in their first 10 years farming), folks who've been farming for years, farmer allies, food lovers, and everyone in between to join HYFC.

To become an official member of our organization, sign up through the National Young Farmers Coalition. Memberships are offered on a sliding scale starting from $1, and they come with rad perks at a variety of farm and garden retailers like Johnny's (seeds!), Premier1 (livestock fences!), Redback (boots!), and beyond. Select Hoosier Young Farmers as your chapter affiliation, and you'll be on your way to bolstering the young farmer movement!

If you'd like to join our newsletter, you can receive  timely updates on upcoming events and related workshops, conferences, job and volunteer opportunities, and funding call-outs, and have the opportunity to post your own updates.

Lobby on behalf of small-scale sustainable farmers

Writing a letter, making a phone call, or just starting a conversation with a neighbor or friend can make a big difference.

​Visit our Policy page to learn more on some of the issues we’re concerned with, and how you can champion them.

Come to our
​next event

Our events are open to the public, typically accompanied by farm-fresh and local refreshments, and are a foot-stompin’ good time.

​Check out our Events page to find upcoming chances to connect with other young farmers.

Volunteer or work on
​an Indiana farm

Work or volunteer on an Indiana farm! One of the best ways to find out if small-scale sustainable or organic farming is right for you is to do it yourself. Check out our Young Farmer Classifieds to find job postings. We also highlight those opportunities on our Instagram.
