Acreage & Farm Help


What is a Farmsitter? A Farmsitter is someone who has the skills and availability to help or work on a farm or acreage. Vacation coverage, full time help, seeding, harvest, need someone to do chores for a weekend or someone to do the work while you recover from an injury; these are all reasons to call AgriConnect to find a Farmsitter. We will try and find people near your community to help you and we provide our service for FREE.

Imagine - One web site or phone number to call all across Canada to find help for your farm or acreage? One place to go register if you have skills and availability to help someone......
that is what we are building.  
          We are building a network of people willing to help people.
