More details about your skills
Regarding my farm experience, I grew up on my parent’s hobby farm where we raised cattle, sheep, and chickens. We also had a large persimmon orchard, which we would maintain and harvest every year. For extra pocket money, I worked on my neighbour’s vineyard, which mainly involved weeding and pruning the vines. I am experienced with general farm maintenance and familiar with many tools and machinery.

Lucky is the family to have Nick come and stay. He’s very conscientious, understands completely the work needed to be done and the best way to go about it. The work was quite labour intensive, on a hillside, sometimes wet, and he just got on with things.
