Program Overview

Are you seeking an experience abroad in the Agriculture field? We offer supervised internships tailored to agriculture and related subjects. Simply let us know your requirements, and we'll place you in a project perfectly matched for you.

In exchange for your work on the farm, we provide free accommodation and meals!

How can you get involved?

The tasks are fun and diverse! You'll be responsible for caring for the cattle, performing activities like feeding and milking the animals. Many farms experience calving during early spring, providing an excellent opportunity for you to gain valuable experience and knowledge. If you're fortunate, you might witness the birth of a calf and welcome it to the farm! On mixed farms, you can also assist in caring for other animals and operate the tractor to tend to various tasks, such as repairing fences or harvesting. Each day offers new experiences, ensuring you won't get bored!

You'll work 5 days a week for about 40-45 hours and have 2 days off. As farms require constant attention, your days off might not necessarily fall on the weekends. But that won't lessen the fun. You'll still have plenty of time to enjoy the place.

My internship at Old Mill Farm

From small puppies to big horses, there was just about everything. There were puppies, kittens, dogs, cats, pigs, donkeys, goats and horses. My job was to take care of the animals. I was allowed to muck out places, feed animals, take pictures of dogs, pet animals and be there for the animals. Each has its story and each wants only one thing: love. Those were wonderful 3 months and I was allowed to take care of one dog at a time and went for a walk with him early in the morning and went around again in the evening. The best moment for everyone was when the animals found a new home.
