I do know some cattle and horse ranchers in my valley, and if you are in this region, or are willing to come out this way, people are almost always looking for help. Though I can't speak for them.
At any rate, you might also want to check out wwoofing. In the wwoof (willing workers on organic farms was the original acronym... it's changed now I think) system, you get a list of many farms and you can contact them and make a commitment to a farm. I would suggest making a commitment of a month, to start with. You will find if the farm is a good fit for you in this time, and even if it's not a great fit, it's not too much out of you to do this much, at the same time the farm gets that extra help for that time. If it's not working out, then apply elsewhere at a different farm. With wwoofing, you can get a lot of varied experience that you would not normally get if you stayed on at just one farm.
Good luck on your search.
