TCR Internship Program

For twenty years, TCR has been dedicated to nurturing the next generation of agricultural leaders. TCR places a strong emphasis on tailoring the learning experience to the individual in order to help them thrive in the diverse and specialized field of agriculture. Our focus areas include enhancing our interns' horsemanship skills, deepening their understanding of the ecological impact of agriculture, and providing knowledge in crop science, among other subjects. TCR interns are highly encouraged to take advantage of the Cody Nite Rodeo and other opportunities in the beautiful mountainous landscape surrounding us. When you join TCR as an intern, you become part of our TCR family! Below, you can find testimonials from some of our past interns. Applications are due by March 1 for that summers internship.

Intern Testimonials

Payton Bartels

Ranch Associate Intern
Trout Creek Ranch (TCR) is located in the most beautiful place in the world. I have never experienced anything like working for TCR. The nature is breathtaking, and the people I was working with are family. There is no better place to learn valuable life lessons, and respect for nature.
Kaija Jezierski

Ranch Associate Intern
Working at Trout Creek Ranch was an incredible experience and I am so thankful to have spent a summer here. From working with wildlife management, to operating equipment, I gained a lifetime of knowledge and experiences while earning my internship for my Bachelor's degree. Cory, Renea, and Bob are extraordinary mentors, and I am so thankful to have learned so much from them. This internship was an incredible opportunity, and I am forever grateful for the people I met, and the knowledge they so graciously shared with me.
Jessica Schlauch

Equine and Ranch Associate Intern
The seven months I spent as an intern a TCR were the most fun, most exhausting, and rewarding months I have had. In fact, I loved TCR, especially the people, the horses, and the environment, so much I have never left; I now am a full time Assistant Equine Manager.
Wren Harvey

Equine Associate Intern
Everyone at Trout Creek is incredibly talented and enthusiastic about their jobs and helping everyone they can. I learned so much in just 3 months and wouldn’t trade the experience for the world.
Elizabeth Couture

Equine Associate Intern
Trout Creek Ranch is located in a beautiful part of Wyoming, but what made working there so incredible are the people who make TCR what it is. I wouldn’t be the horsewoman I am today without Renea Williams, she was a wonderful teacher, and she showed me the fundamentals to training.
Pyper Schultz

Equine Associate Intern
I learned and experienced so much in the short three months I interned at TCR. I had never really been out west, specifically Wyoming, before working out here and everyone at the ranch made me feel very welcomed and at home. I'm so glad I got to improve my horsemanship skills, as well as gain knowledge on basic ranching operations and irrigation!
Cole Jones

Ranch Associate Intern
Trout Creek Ranch gave me an incredible experience in such a beautiful place. I learned so much so fast about all the aspects of ranching. They treated me like family right away and were super passionate about the work they do and sharing the knowledge they have.
