    HI!


    We need workaway volunteers with an up to date clear Criminal Records Check. The CRC you used to enter Canada is perfect. I need a screenshot please. Thank you for your understanding. 💜

    My family of 2 boys, a son and his wife, and a young lady and I live on a lovely farm in Metchosin. We have a large garden, fruit and nut trees, chickens for eggs, cows for milk and pigs for pork. We use the meat from our cows and pigs, milk from our cows, eggs from our chickens and produce from our garden and orchard in our home.
    We have hosted people from all over the world and we love the diversity of language and cultures. I'm an experienced host with over 11 years of opening my home to others.

    I work on site as the main care provider for the owner of the property- a young lady with Downs Syndrome. There could be possible opportunity for additional paid respite work. Some supervision and light meal prep is all that is needed here. No personal care.

    We prefer long stays due to the nature of the help, but email me with your availability. Preference given to those willing to commit to 1 or more months.

    We are surrounded by nature and it's a great place to live if you like that! Beaches and parks within walking distance, bikes and trails close to the house. Bus stop is a short walk away.

    Fall and winter tasks include feeding/ watering animals, milking the cow, building fences, veterinary care of our animals, and help with harvesting and preserving produce. Construction and building skills are a bonus, if you have them! There are always things to do on the farm. Spring and summer also include planning, planting, weeding and harvesting our garden produce.
    We enjoy spending time with our farm helpers and doing fun things too!

    Unterkunft

    Your own bedroom and shared facilities. I posted a photo of your room so you can see where you'll stay. I also have a camper on the property that my workawayers are welcome to stay in.
    High-speed WiFi is provided, of course.
    Cable TV and streaming services in the main area of the house when you need some downtime.
    Food is readily available, and we encourage a sit-down main meal with the family. Most people are independent with breakfast and lunch, but sometimes we do a huge brunch style breakfast as well on the weekends with the kids.
