Hello,

I am graduating with a BA in Sustainable Agriculture December 2015 and have been working on a goat/sheep/cow dairy for the past 10 months milking, making soft and aged cheeses, providing medical care and keeping records on all the livestock. I also trained employees/interns on animal husbandry skills and cheesemaking. I am looking for a job at a goat, sheep and/or cow dairy in the U.S. I am happy to send references and my resume!

We have a small dairy near Tampa FL and milk a small herd of Water Buffalo on a diverse permaculture type farm. Looking for others interested in this, intentional communities, environment activism, WAPF, HLM, etc. We have a listing in the www.ic.org community directory as Ecofarmfl Community in Florida.

Would you consider Northern Maine ? I have an acre or two that you can work on in exchange for helping me. Work the acreage properly and in short order you could be making money. This is an excellent area to live. Almost all the people are just plain good. There are jobs available as well. We could build you a Cabin on skids. When you put together about $ 3000.00, I know of many in the area that will finance you. Especially if they can see the work you have already completed. Load the cabin on a truck then move to your own place. You will also have the outbuildings you will need to be up and in operation. Things you will need like an outhouse, woodshed on skids, smoker on skids, etc.. I think you get the idea.
