    Description

    I have a small property where I grow black pepper and cinnamon, surrounded by beautiful nature. There is also a house on the property where I live. I’m looking for help with day-to-day tasks such as maintaining the garden, light household work, and general upkeep of the property.

    I’m also planning to develop the place into a small eco-tourism project, so I would love to have volunteers who are interested in sustainable living, eco-building, or permaculture and who can share ideas or advice on how to upgrade the space.

    In the near future, I plan to set up a polytunnel for growing vegetables and herbs, so anyone with experience or interest in gardening or small-scale farming would be most welcome.

    It’s a peaceful and relaxing place — a good opportunity for someone who enjoys nature and wants to be part of building an eco-friendly project from the ground up.
