Other Ag News: Our Team Is Growing: Now Hiring Assistant for Veterans in Ag Project

The Cornell Small Farms Program team is continuing to grow, and we are hiring! We are excited to share that the application is now open for our newest team member, Program Extension Aide III- Veteran Program Assistant.

Through the efforts of the Farm Ops project to support military veterans entering into agricultural vocations or farming as a career, our veteran audience has grown. We aim to create new pathways for farm training and educational resources that address the specific needs of veterans and complement existing, established resources.

The Veteran Program Assistant will play a key role in helping enhance the resources and training available to military veterans interested in farming. While our primary efforts will target veterans (service members who have already been discharged), we will extend the resources we develop to those on active duty, who want to farm after their service commitment.

We are currently welcoming applications and we look forward to meeting you! External applicants must apply through the Cornell Careers site. Internal applicants (including temporary employees) will need to apply through Workday. The posting will close on February 24, 2025.
