SABO RANCH INTERNSHIPS AVAILABLE
Contact us at (406)685-3248, saboranch1@gmail.com. Mail:P.O.Box 65, Harrison, MT 59735
March 2011 onwards, positions available, 2 references required, written or telephone interviews.
MINIMUM STAY, three months, unless you come with serious experience on another cattle operation. We recognize that there is lots to learn here, and we love teaching. However, the teaching requires lots of time and energy from us, Mark and Jenny, since we want to make every intern position at Sabo Ranch worth YOUR time as well.
TUITION FEES: $100.00 USD per week for the first three months (3 month minimum stay), which covers room and board, and time spent teaching.
Once a student is competent enough, we might choose to leave for an overnight trip, at which point we will pay the intern to cover the ranch in our absence.
If a student is also competent enough, there is the option of staffing a Farmers Market booth for Sabo Ranch, which is also a paid position
