    Description

    We are a couple with two dogs and 3 cats living on a property of 100 ha in Southern France, 50 km to Montpellier. We do have mediterranian climate. There is a house for the workawayers. We are looking for people helping in the garden +/- 20 hours a week. We speak 4 languages and like exchange with people, but we need also our privacy. So we are looking for workawayers able to deal with themselves.
    We are not connected to electricity-grid.

    Actually we are busy in the garden. We need help preparing earth, compost, planting etc. Later we will construct glasshouse for vegetables, salade etc. in winter. As we do have a very large property, we also need help to cut grass, bushes and trees.
    Most of the time we will work together; as I do have a firm (photovoltaics), sometimes workawayers have to work alone.
    We do have all skills and a lot of machines.
