    Description

    hello,
    Lyn & ken have a 100% organic small blueberry & vegetable farm with excellent accommodation for 2 helpers. August and Sept are are busiest months but we are open all year. Spring and summer, we are busy vegetable farming and would love some help at this time in return for a relaxed way of life.
    We also liaise and help other local farmers.
    We live in an idyllic and outgoing happy community with a local town, Bridgewater, nearby.
    Our laid - back lifestyle would suit similar minded people.
