What people say about working with us
"Walnut Grove Farms, a pocket of brilliance! It is hard to find a work environment where expertise, hard work, teamwork, compassion, good humor, and foresight come together as well as they do at Walnut Grove Farms."
-Tim Hulley, Nottingham Road, South Africa; Walnut Grove Team, 2015-16
"My internship experience at Walnut Grove Farms was excellent. The whole team was very welcoming and supportive, definitely a family environment. I would highly recommend working here if you are looking for an internship, or career, with a variety of valuable work experience in agriculture."
-Justin Steinlage, Pittsburg, Kansas; Summer Intern, 2016
"My wife and I visited Walnut Grove Farms during the bean harvest this past October. As outside observers, as well as daily participants in the harvest, we were impressed with the entire organization. Don and Sam Halcomb manage Walnut Grove Farms and are proud of the business they have created. As managers, they recognize the importance of leading by example and understand their personal attitudes set the tone for the workplace. Management science aside, happy workplaces are more pleasant places to work than unhappy ones. To get the most out of their employees, good managers strive to create a positive work environment. Clearly, Don and Sam understand that when people feel encouraged, accepted and happy—they are more motivated and perform better. Motivation and performance are priorities at Walnut Grove. Don and Sam take a sincere interest in the employees’ welfare and go out of their way to make visitors and new employees feel valued. As a result, training opportunities are available for individuals interested in pursuing a career in agriculture or expanding their current level of expertise. This emphasis on personal and professional development makes Walnut Grove Farms an ideal fit for anyone considering a career in agriculture: from high school interns—to retirees seeking part-time work. If you enjoy operating modern farming equipment and want to be engaged in an effort larger than yourself or if you want to experience a sense of community and collaboration within a diversified workforce, Walnut Grove Farms might just be the place for you. Mary and I look forward to our next visit to Walnut Grove Farms and would highly recommend the experience to anyone serious about agriculture."
