Farm Sitting Business?

Reprinted with permission from an e-newsletter published by UMaine Extension

Have you thought about going into farm sitting as a business? This course is designed to equip individuals with the tools to serve as effective farm sitters and to understand the general responsibilities of helping an animal-based farm enterprise successfully continue in the absence of the farmer or manager.

The course will start on March 26, 2024, and will be a hybrid of online and in-person learning.

 This training program is offered on a sliding scale (self-selected): $50, $35, or $20. We strive to make the training accessible and affordable for all Maine residents. Learn more and register here.
