    Description

    We are a german couple, live on a small farm in Algarve/Portugal situated near Faro with cats, dogs and chicken. Here we run a small plant nursery. We always need help with the plants (weeding, repotting etc) and the house and the plot (painting, cleaning, cutting bushes and trees).
    We can offer a nice accommodation (room or caravan, depends on the time of year) and certainly food and bikes to explore the region or visit the next beach (8 km away). We are situated 2 km away from the next village and somebody who likes nature and animals and also private time during the day will like our farm and a stay. Normally we ask for help between breakfast and lunch, so afternoons are free time and it would be very good, if you have ideas how to spent it. You could walk or bike or read or sleep :)
    Right now we are looking for one or two helpers, who are reliable and friendly.

    Most of the work is working with plants in the nursery. Beside this sometimes we need to paint something and also take care of the whole plot. Sometimes we need to cut a tree etc. We would be happy if somebody wants to help us 4 hours daily/5 days a week.
