Join us with the day-to-day running of our non-commercial farm
Join Our Friendly Family-Run Farm in Shuswap
Nestled in the picturesque Shuswap region, our family-run farm is a haven for horses, sheep, and chickens. We pride ourselves on the warm, welcoming atmosphere we provide and the stunning natural beauty that surrounds us.
Location
Our farm is ideally situated within walking distance of fantastic hiking and biking trails and just a 10-minute drive from the serene Shuswap Lake. The vibrant center of Salmon Arm, offering a plethora of amenities and attractions, is also conveniently located 10 minutes away.
Who We're Looking For
We seek one or two individuals with experience handling horses to join us and help around the farm. Your daily tasks will include:
• Mucking out stables
• Handling and feeding horses
• Filling haynets
• Keeping the barn clean and tidy
• Assisting with light housekeeping and cooking
Depending on your experience, there may also be opportunities for riding.
In Exchange
In return for your hard work and dedication, we offer:
• Comfortable accommodation
• Delicious, home-cooked meals
• Access to a pool during the summer months
• Wonderful company and a welcoming environment
We invite you to stay with us for a month or two (or more!), when you will become part of our extended farm family.
We look forward to meeting you and sharing our beautiful corner of the world with you!
