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.Types of help and learning opportunities

What else ...
We are 6km away from the mall and within walking distance of a bus route. There are lots of shopping areas, movie theatres, sports arenas and parks in the area.
The city is part of Canada's Technology Triangle (CTT), a joint economic development initiative of Waterloo, Kitchener, Cambridge and the Region of Waterloo that markets the region internationally. Despite its name, CTT does not focus exclusively on promoting technology industries, but on all aspects of economic development.A little more information
