How to Apply

Via Email

We are looking for a long-term employee who wants a great opportunity to live this amazing ranch lifestyle. We run 450 head of cattle in the Badlands of North Dakota and we are looking for someone to help with all aspects on a working ranch.

Day-to-day duties of caring for livestock: feeding, doctoring, calving, tagging, branding, weaning, checking and maintaining water and fences, and all the other things cattle need. We plant about 500 acres for the cattle so tractor work including seeding, spraying, swathing, baling, hauling & stacking bales is required. Weed spraying, corral building and anything else the ranch may come up with! If you have experience, you know how it is.

We are looking for someone who works well alongside us but can be trusted to handle things on your own. We need someone who can be there to feed on the weekends. Six days a week most of the time, possibly 7 during calving and haying. We use horses and 4-wheelers, so this is not strictly a cowboy job. You can’t beat our community and neighbors!

There is housing on the ranch. A valid driver’s license is needed as we are pretty secluded, 24 miles from the nearest small towns. Sidney, MT / Alexander, ND / Watford City, ND (school district we are in)

Individuals, couples or families are welcome to apply.
