SUMMER JOB OPPORTUNITY! Tup’s is looking for an evening milker, 4 shifts a week. No prior experience necessary but the right applicant will enjoy working with livestock, treat the animals with care, be reliable and be able to work independently.
Must be able to:
- be on time
- work standing for 4 - 5 hours in one stretch
- be attentive to best practices for animal health
- learn how to correctly operate the milking equipment
- retain and act on sometimes complex sets of instructions
- lift 50lbs
- be comfortable working in a barn and around large numbers of animals
We pay $75 per shift. The start time is 3:00 pm, and a shift currently lasts around 4-5 hours. Shifts will be 3-4 hours by August. We pay for training. We are looking for Monday – Thursday evenings, but if you're open to working weekend evenings we could certainly be flexible! Position is open immediately and could extend beyond the summer if desired.
Do you operate a skid-steer? Let us know! Additional opportunity exists for the right person to take on feeding/bedding responsibilities outside of milking hours.
Tup’s Crossing Farm is a family owned and operated pasture-based dairy in Orwell, VT. We ship milk to Vermont Creamery. Happy goats make more milk!
