What We Do / Volunteering with Farmer to Farmer

The USAID-funded Partners of the Americas Caribbean Region Farmer to Farmer Program provides technical agricultural assistance to the countries of Haiti, Guyana, Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic, as well as select other countries.  Farmer to Farmer recruits experienced agriculturalists from the US.  Volunteers may travel individually or in teams.

The 2008-2013 Farmer to Farmer Program is currently entering the final months of its funding cycle. Since volunteer activities are to be concluded in August 2013, few volunteer opportunities remain at this time. However, interested farmers or specialists with expertise in Farmer to Farmer Program areas (horticulture, dairy and small animal production, agroforestry, beekeeping, agribusiness and enterprise development) are welcome to send their resumes to Program staff for possible future consideration.

Partners' Headquarters in Washington DC maintains a database of interested volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering, please send your resume or CV to the email address below.
