AgCareers.com Releases New Calendar of U.S. Feed Your Future Virtual Career Fairs

Sep 22, 2022

The AgCareers.com 2022-2023 season of Feed Your Future virtual career fairs will continue to connect agri-food employers and job seekers across the United States. Organizations require qualified talent to fill workforce gaps in agriculture and food.

The industry recognizes many online shifts remain and are expanding, including virtual job fairs, interviews, meetings, and even work-from-home trends. AgCareers.com continues to serve the essential agricultural and food industries with facilitation of the robust series of U.S. National Feed Your Future virtual career fairs.

When the pandemic began affecting in-person recruitment events in 2020, AgCareers.com launched the Feed Your Future initiative to enable these connections virtually. “Though some in-person fairs have resumed, organizations and candidates both recognize constraints of these traditional events,” shared Kathryn Doan, Director, AgCareers.com. “In contrast, the simplicity, timesaving, and cost-effectiveness of virtual recruiting is immediately measurable,” added Doan.

There are agri-food job opportunities for candidates exploring a new career, a new industry, or interested in making a difference. Abundant job openings are available in research & development, processing, logistics, administration, technology, packaging, production, and much more. Careers are located on the farm, in the field, plant, lab and office (on-site and remote).

Virtual Career Fairs

Feed Your Future virtual career fairs highlight and connect job seekers and employers with career opportunities throughout the food chain. U.S. career fairs start on October 19^th with the National Plant Systems Fair. The National Animal Systems Fair follows on November 2^nd. Region-specific career fairs begin in January 2023. Registration and details for each fair are available here: https://www.agcareers.com/feed-your-future.cfm.

Video: Early Fall Colors | Scenic Ontario Road Trip!

All adventures must come to an end, but not without one more journey! Join The Wandering Shepherds as we say farewell to our cozy Calabogie cottage and take the scenic road trip home to Ewetopia Farms. Our first stop was a breathtaking hydroelectric generating station, framed by cliffs, rushing water, and brilliant fall leaves that seemed to have changed overnight. From there, we meandered along winding backroads through lakes and hills, soaking in the spectacular autumn scenery. This year, the colors seemed to arrive earlier than usual—perhaps due to the summer’s drought? Whatever the reason, it was an unforgettable display of Ontario’s fall beauty. Finally, our holiday drew to a close as we pulled back into Ewetopia Farms, ready to return to the sheep and our daily vlogs. But this trip reminded us how important it is to pause, explore, and appreciate the simple beauty around us.
