Regenerative Farming Jobs & Career Opportunities

Hungry World Farm is a 175-acre nonprofit regenerative farm in Tiskilwa, Illinois. We grow nutrient-dense, chemical-free food, restore soil and ecosystems, and inspire people through immersive education and farmstay experiences.

We’re in an exciting stage of growth—expanding our farmstay lodging, building silvopasture and agroforestry systems, and strengthening our educational programs for families, volunteers, and students.

Hungry World Farm is not just a workplace or a place to visit. It is a living classroom and a community by intention, where passionate people come together to live, learn, and contribute to a healthier future.

Farm internships in Illinois are generally seasonal (May 26 - early August) to align with college schedules, though some flexibility is available.

  • Regenerative Farming Flex Internship - Rotate through multiple program areas for a comprehensive experience.

Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteer opportunities are available year‑round, and we’re happy to match you with a role that fits your interests and experience. Sometimes that means simply living the farm dream - helping with livestock chores, planting or harvesting in the market garden, tending crops, building a fence, planting trees, or lending a hand during events. For those interested in a longer‑term commitment, we provide training to support your growth and confidence.

We welcome help any day of the week on a variety of farm projects. Connect with us, spend time on the land, and help Hungry World Farm grow.
