Meet Pierre, our summer student from France 🇫🇷

For the past couple of months, he’s traded life back home for life on a Canadian bison ranch.

For this interview, we asked him:

“What advice would you give to a student wanting to do an internship on our farm?”

If you’ve ever thought about travelling, working abroad, or experiencing life on a farm, his answer might be exactly what you need to hear.

Would you ever spend a summer on a farm in another country?

Meet Pierre 🇫🇷

Two months ago, he left France to spend the summer working on our bison ranch in Alberta.

New country, new language and a new way of life!

We sat down with him to hear what the experience has really been like and what he’s learned along the way.

Part 1 starts now!

Have a question for Pierre? Leave it in the comments and he will be happy to answer :)
