I thought this was a joke when I 1st read about this offer a few years ago.
Farmer’s Daughter ? Seriously ??? 😂
2 acres of Land for Free ??? and a Job ? What’s the catch ???
Anyway … I applied and I’m on the waiting list.
I would love to move out to Cape Breton Island !
Update:
From the The Farmer's Daughter Country Market -
"Three years ago we posted an offer to come work for us and you would also receive free land. The response we got and continue to receive from this post has been amazing. Here is an update:
- This is an ongoing recruitment and we continue to draw from the applicants that emailed us.
- We have had successful applicants that continue to work for us.
- Some successful applicants are no longer working for The Farmer’s Daughter but continue to work and live on our beautiful island.
- A couple of of our hires have left our store and our Island as our pace of life was a bit to slow for them.
- With the Atlantic Immigration Pilot there is now a possibility to hire international applicants.
- We have received over 400000 inquiries, and it has been impossible to respond to them all. I’d love to hire everyone but I cannot. However there are other employment opportunities, business opportunities, investment opportunities, and affordable post secondary education for both Canadian and international students. It’s a great place to visit too! Because of the success of our offer, we partnered with The Cape Breton Partnership and they created a website to help make these opportunities more accessible to all of you and to help answer your questions.
