Description
Help us restore our fantastic property and log house in the gorgeous Okanagan Valley! We recently moved to a 10 acre forest oasis with an award winning log home in the hills above Kelowna, BC and it needs a lot of work and we'd love some strong skilled hands to help us. Me, my wife and 3 year old daughter are kind and hardworking and never seem to have enough time to get the task list completed.
