Has anyone here worked on a farm before? What were your experiences like?
A few small farms near me are offering internships and it sounds nice to do physical work outdoors instead of wagecucking at a gas station

Well I live on one but it's not my family's main source of income. I don't know what to say, it's work but it provides us with food, the means to warm the house in the winter and some smaller profit on the side.

>Has anyone here worked on a farm before?
Yes raide cattle farming
What were your experiences like?
Very tough. Not sure people who were not raised with it could cope really. Glad not to have to work like that anymore, horrible especially in winter but even in the summer thick clouds of flies

>internship
that's a creative way to get kids excited about working over the summer.

If it's a typical fudd farm where they don't care for anything then you're gonna have lots of fun.
How easy is it to get alone time with animals if you work or internship on a farm? Asking for a friend.

I grew up in an organic farm:
- Great food / environnement
-Very little money
-Late retirement with a broken body
-Loneliness and remote life hard to find wife, for your kids to meet friends, access cultural facilities and long drives to school

If you are foddering and bringing cattle to water in winter your friend wont care much for such bullshit thinking after a few days

Yes, it's hot hard work but I enjoy it. Pay is shit, hours are shit, most of the people you work with is shit (at least the ones who come out for two weeks then split when they get their first paycheck). Once you get past that you will love it, and every job you have for the rest of your life will suck in comparison.
You have to be able to accept that no job will ever be done completely, and enjoy working with your hands, but unlike most jobs you actually get to see the progress of your work at the end of the day and there is something satisfying about that.
