We are looking for a retired couple to work on our ranch which is located 30 minutes east of Sarasota, Florida.

Twenty hours per week in exchange for RV lot — on nice private ranch in SW Florida.

The duties that need to be accomplished are: fencing, painting, irrigation, (water lines and troughs), operate and maintain farm equipment such as tractor, UTVs, weed wacker, zero-turn mower etc, pasture maintenance and rotation, feed and care of cattle( 30 head), goats, chickens, ducks, etc, barns, perform weed control and maintain fruit trees and organic garden.

As you know, this type of position is not an 8 to 5 job, though we will work with you to accommodate your needs for time off.

Very nice, RV lot with 50AMP service is available. Background check required. No drama. We have a quiet, peaceful habitation.

We would like to have a husband and wife team who loves the rural farm life and who are looking to make a long term commitment. You don’t need to know how to do everything on the list – but the job does require a can do, team player attitude. Being a learner is important as things come up on a farm that you may not have encountered before but which you need to figure out how to address/solve for. This work/living arrangement is not suitable for children.

If this sounds exciting to you, please forward bio & resume to email address. Note – you must have your own vehicle for transportation and independent source of income such as retirement income such as social security, pension, remote work. If very experienced, we will negotiate a salary with you to be the ranch manager.
