Graphic Designer

Wildfarmed is hiring. We are looking for a versatile, energetic, and ambitious Graphic Designer to join our team. This is a unique opportunity to join an exciting new venture at the beginning of its journey.

About Wildfarmed

Wildfarmed is an agriculture and food business. We use innovative regenerative farming practices that harness science and work with nature to cultivate high-quality grains without chemicals. We then mill those grains to make flour for bread, pastries, pasta, pizza, anything you can think of.

20 million people watched David Attenborough's annual message about biodiversity loss and 66% of the UK thinks climate change is the most important threat we face. The general public may not be interested in soil health, farming and biodiversity but they are interested in the everyday things they can do to make things better and heal the planet.

Eating Wildfarmed™ is one of those things.

Our challenge now is to tell this story with passion, style and wit. We have a solution to a somewhat abstract problem of climate change through eating carbs that are super healthy.
