Description
Joe and I are both long term residents of Vanuatu. With help from our daughter Rae, we operate a property that hosts a small farm and a small tourist destination.
The tourist side of the venture is called Eden on the River. Our underlying philosophy is family first and then as farmers how to care for our environment. We are not organic but definitely "Clean and Green".
The property is 18 hectares and we farm free range pigs, chickens and sheep, tropical fruit and are also a tourism destination, with a variety of tour options, from our suspended bridge tour to mini golf. We have nearly 2 hectares landscaped gardens and a cafe.
We need help in extending the menu in the cafe/kitchen; using local fresh produce and would be interested in someone that could teach the staff about making jams and pickles. Any way we can incorporate our locally produced fruit and vegetables into our menu, would be appreciated. Business training, process streamlining and documenting process and procedures would be appreciated is another area where we need assistance.
Also required is someone with some mechanic skills. Our fleet of J10 Subarus, which we love, need care as does some of our other equipment. The workshop also requires from organisation and cleaning. Nothing is digital and all are pretty basic,Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre
