We need more workers to help out around here! Come be part of our team!
With the addition of new horses and the new trails, Belle View Farm in Waterford, VA (7 miles west of Leesburg) is looking for a few new part time team members to help keep all the horses healthy and happy, and to keep the barn and property clean and tidy as it should be.
Morning or evening shifts available and some flexibility around start times depending on your schedule. You can choose to work 5 or 6 morning shifts a week which could be 20-25 hours, or as little as 4-6 hours a week in 2 evening shifts. Working for credit toward board fees is fine with commitment (field board is available, stalls are full).
Depending upon the shift and the weather, you may be cleaning and/or prepping stalls, feeding, soaking hay, scrubbing water and feed buckets, grooming or bathing a horse, dragging a field, spreading manure in a field, fixing a fence, painting something, trimming a shrub or tree, any combination thereof or other duties as assigned.
Super job for teens, college kids, folks looking to be in the great outdoors and not to be sitting at a desk, moms with kids in school who are missing their horse years, or anyone who isn’t afraid of (sometimes hard) work.
Requirements include a great, willing attitude, some experience handling horses or at least being comfortable around them in close proximity, having no fear or aversion to p**p cuz sometimes (well always, really) when you work around horses p**p is never far away, reliable transportation, must live within a reasonable distance of Waterford, VERY reliable and trustworthy, ability to lift and carry 50 lbs. References are required as is valid identification.
Pay in line with industry and based on experience.
COME ON OVER! Send a PM if you are interested or have questions.
