Description
I am retired and living now in Mallorca but originally from UK. I am quite active for my age and love to have multiple projects on the go, that said there is only so much I can manage now-a-days so help is much needed.
I have a varied diet but would say I’m a meat eater but open for new diets and have experimented with vegetarian or vegan. I love animals and in future would love to home hens. I love being in nature and the property is very much in keeping with this. The property and my project is to grow a variety of trees, crops and plants on the plot of 4000m2. I have planed 82 trees to date however 30 have died.
The property is located in the beautiful town of Alaro, a central part of Mallorca that hugs the Tramontana mountain range, the views from the property are picture postcard stuff. Alaro has a vibrant town center which is 10min walk away. You can find bars, cafes, markets days and small selection of shops. There are country walks that can take you into mountains.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Help with Eco Projects
Gardening
Farmstay help
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Get to know the beautiful town of Alaro and island of Mallorca. The project will give you the opportunity to be active and contribute to a development of an eco friendly agrigultural startup. This is an offgrid setup where the resources are limited of water and electricity so learning to mananage this is part of the journey.
Help
I mainly need help on the Agricultural Project, to continue the good work of maintaining the trees, plants and crops (watering, pruning, weeding) as well as help to plant any new trees/plats/crops. There are some other projects that I may look into like mending an old chicken coop.
