Swiss farmer looking to return to ranch life in Canada

Located in
  • Cariboo -
  • Lower Mainland - Fraser Valley -
I'm a citizen of Switzerland. I would be really interested on a long-term rent of this farm. Farming is my life. Sadly there are no farms available for rent in Switzerland. I'm 29 years old, studied agriculture for three years and was able to graduate in 2015. Before I had a three year apprenticeship as a carpenter. I also have good mechanical skills to fix farm equipment and a hard working attitude. In the past I had a couple different internship in Canada, and would have some good references. My last internship was in 2018 on Fox dairy farm in Quesnel B.C. Currently I'm working in the Swiss mountains monitoring the wellbeing of 250 Cow/calf pair's. For more information please contact. I would love to hear from you.
