We offer working holidays on farms with agriculture and horses. Orientation & training course, accommodation & food provided.
We have work for all those with Visas which allow work. We have work experience for students and visitors. All the work is well paid.
Those who want outback farm or station work - working with horses, cattle and sheep, tractor and header driving, bull dozer work, fencing, mechanical work, chain saw work, horsework at stables, in trail riding centres, on Host Farms, with racehorses, polo ponies, camp draft horses or on cattle properties doing bore running, yard work, maintenance and ag bike work with cattle and sheep - must attend one of the Introduction to Agriculture Courses at Springbrook Farm or one of the associate farms.
There are so many jobs that it is possible to find something to suit the skills of everybody BUT do not expect to be a tractor driver on the highest rate of pay after 4 lessons - nor assume that you can do an outback cattle mustering job on horseback if a non rider before the course.
Those who want Hospitality work - on Host Farms, in hotels and motels, bars and roadhouses should attend the Introduction to Hospitality course instead of the Agriculture course. It is possible to combine hospitality and horse riding work.
We have work for:
- mechanics and engineers
- teachers and graduates
- cooks and chefs
- tractor and bulldozer drivers
- agricultural graduates and students
- anyone who has lived on a farm
- horse riders
