I loved being around all the animals and learning how to take care of them. I also liked all the work we did in the beautiful outdoors. The homemade cooking was also to die for! Along with working, we did a lot of fun activities to keep our minds fresh.
What I wish was different
I wish it was longer! I had a really good time there.

Intern
July - August 2018 • New Castle, VA
What I liked
Just about everything! My supervisors were extremely nice and compassionate. Everyday we had something new to learn and do, so it never got repetitive or boring. We had several projects over the time of the internship that we had to complete, which actually were useful. For example, one project thee had us do was to design a barn that would hold a specific amount of hay, and our design plan went into consideration for how a new barn will be designed on their farm in Tennessee. Our supervisors also made sure to include fun activities after work hours, increasing our bonding as a team, as well as establishing just a personal connection with them in general.
What I wish was different
I wish the internship had lasted longer!
Advice
There’s not really anything about this internship that wasn’t clearly communicated to us before we started, but I would like to emphasize that as an intern at Sinking Creek Land and Cattle, you’ll have early mornings and long days of work.
