All Natural, Sustainable, Pasture Based Farm in Oregon Offering Interships

Lake View Farm, located in the mid-Willamette Valley, offers all natural, additive and hormone free, pasture fed beef, pork, lamp, chicken, turkey, eggs and Oregon’s First Cow Share.  We are close to three major market centers, Eugene, Corvallis and Albany allowing for unusual marketing opportunities.  Sustainability and providing our family and animals with a peaceful lifestyle are paramount and offering people the opportunity to eat REAL food is our goal.

We offer three internship levels for those interested in a hands-on farming experience.  From novice to those more experienced farm hands, there are many opportunities to learn and develop your knowledge of farm practices and principles.

If you’re looking for a well-financed, work-without-a-hitch, typical commercial farming style experience, Lake View Farm probably isn’t what you need.  But if you want to learn how to carve out your own niche in the competitive world of agriculture, if you want to raise REAL food for your family and others, if you want to live the best lifestyle there is, we may have something to expand your experience.

 

Expectations:

General expectations for all intern positions are:

  • a genuine interest in sustainable agriculture
  • a positive, can-do attitude
  • a willingness to work hard, long hours
  • a teachable mind-set

Specifics of our different intern positions are available on our website at www.lvfrealfood.com

 

Compensation:

All intern positions include a lovely camping spot, Sunday dinner with the family and some farm product considerations.  Further details of specific internship compensations available on our website at www.lvfrealfood.com.

 

How to apply:

Check out our website, www.lvfrealfood.com, make sure we’re the kind of place you’d like to spend some time learning and working, then contact us by phone or email via the contact page on

our website. OR email us at lvf.realfood@gmail.com.
