Looking for Farm to Work on This Summer

Hey all,

Last year I had a vehicle, and was able to get out of town to work 3 days on a farm

This year, no vehicle but would like to farm again, will transit, car pool, whatever it takes

So if you know of any opportunities I'm in the North York area and will have at least 2 days a week - will volunteer to learn also :)

Cheers

Also I think www.farmstart.com has some activities in Toronto.

Good luck,

Joe
