Hello, my name is Ayoub Saleh and this is my 2nd year working at the farm!

"The role changed this year to working more independently and now working on the market."

I am back to the farm mostly so I can work on my communication skills. I am looking forward to seeing the market opened every Tuesday and working my business skills.

The impact the Farm has on me is understanding how hard to weed when is on hot days. This year is different because we do not have as many staff because of the virus. However, I hope everything back to normal soon. The role changed this year to working more independently and now working on the market, now I can use cash register more easily.

Thanks to you Vol. 2

“I enjoy working at the farm because what I do in the farm is what I am interested in.”

Hi I am Simon. I like to work outside and working with my hands and I am interested in working with plants. I like growing them and also working with animals, taking care of them which is what I do here at the farm. I also like music, working out at the gym and I like soccer. I enjoy working at the farm because what I do on the farm is what I am interested in so it is a fun place for me.
