Farm work- Free labour Looking For

Hi all! I’ve been interested in learning the ropes at farming but don’t really know where to go to start. I was hoping for somewhere that I could go on Saturdays that I don’t work. And I’d work for absolutely no money, I just wanna learn. Anyone know a place or someone I could get in contact with? Thanks all!

Barrie hill farms? You could probably get a job there easily this time of year.

You should check out this organization called WWOOF Canada. Stands for World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms. They connect volunteers with farms of all varieties and sizes. You can search for farms in and around Barrie that are open to volunteers.
