Help
Current projects:
- repair/cast foundation
- clean/paint greenhouse
- build new inner wall with concrete blocks
- reconstruct concrete floor in old barn
- outside painting of buildings
- adhoc cleanup projects in the garden
We bought an old farm to build a new house but we still want to preserve the old buildings. Those buildings and the garden needs a lot of love and we love to do that ourselves. Being a family with small kids however limits our effective time so having someone accompanying us on the journey could be fun. Non of us are professionals when it comes to renovating so if you have any experience that would be cool otherwise it is enough that you think it could be fun to participate in the journey with us and just put in the hours it takes to make it happen.
We respect and expect that you can work independently and manage your own time unless there are occasional time sensitive tasks.
