We are looking to utilize curtain-sided confinement but also open grazing of stalks, cover crops, etc., as available. An individual who may possess additional skills in electrical, mechanical, welding, construction, or even heavy equipment would be considered a plus. Additional skills, we will find a way to plug into our operation. We also do have fat hogs as part of our diversity, but buildings are contracted out to another producer and we are only responsible for building maintenance as needed. We are not looking for someone seeking employment but someone who wants to make a difference. The farm is located on good roads with opportunities for a spouse to find work within a 25-mile radius and near good schools. Currently, we do have a smaller two-bedroom house available, but we are willing to assist and negotiate if the larger house is needed. The employer wants to hire a solid, long-term employee with a passion for progressive agriculture. Wages/Salary is based on experience, stability, and references.
