FEATURED JOB OPENING: Caretaker Couple - Horse/Hay Operation - Rocky View County, AB

We're looking for a talented couple that can care for a dozen horses while maintaining the farm.  Owners are out of the country for extended periods of time and are in need of a dedicated team that strives for excellence in horse care while maintaining the farm with great pride.  

The couple that we are looking for needs to have experience caring for horses along with being able to operate various types of farm equipment including tractors, haybine, stackliner, baler, skid steer, mowers, etc.  One or both members of the couple would need to have the knowledge to do basic equipment maintenance such as changing air filters, changing oil and general care of machinery.  Positions would be year-round with the busiest time being the summer months.  Year round care is to be provided to the horses; lawns mowed, weeding, tree trimming, painting and like tasks would be added to the list of things to do in the summer.  The 1/4 section farm has its field in hay production and so July (more or less) is also haying season.  Once the hay was in the shed, the couple would then be responsible for selling the hay to the customers that come to the farm to pick up...no deliveries are made.  Winters are a bit quieter but there are still things to do such as keeping the driveway plowed, doing daily walkthrough of all farm buildings to ensure that mechanicals are operating smoothly and dealing with our very unpredictable weather.

Along with a salary, commensurate with the couple's experience, Alberta Blue Cross and WCB, a three bedroom mobile home would be provided to live in.  All utilities, satellite t.v. and internet would be included.  While a couple is being sought to fill the positions, given that the farm is situated close to schools and community association, a family would be welcome.
