    Description

    We have a farm located in Waterloo, Ontario Canada.

    We offer trail rides all year round as well as lessons, camps, parties and so much more!

    We are a family run business that is looking for help mainly over the summer with taking care of the horses and other animals, doing chores and backing trail rides. Also have several maintenance projects that could be completed all year round.

    We have the best of both worlds being on a farm but within walking distance to the bus stop (15min) and to a mall (35 minutes)

    Would also be willing to host a couple with light house work and maintenance projects being done.
