Description
Our family live in a very old dolomites traditional stone house. We have a permaculture garden and we produce mountaineering socks in merino wool (). We are very close to the Marmolada Mountain in the Dolomites. We are me and my wife, two children 12 and 13 years hold, Greta the kennel dog who live with us and 1 cat who lives outside.
We love mountaineering activities in summer as well in winter.

Help
Hi guys, we need strong workers to provide the fire wood for this winter and the next one. So we have to cut in pieces the timber in the wood and stock them in a safe place to dry. I will manage the chain shaw but we need help for mouving timbers, split timber, stock timbers etc. Then we have to recover to the house a small part of wood cutted last years and we have to split the wood in small pieces (we have a machine for this) and we don't use axes. Approximately 2 week of work work

What else ...
we are in the most beautiful place in the world. If you like walking, hiking, trekking, climbing you are in the right place. If you like mountains and mountaineering you are between Marmolada and Civetta. If you don't better to choose another place for apporting help because these is a very wild place;
Helpers work every day for 5 hours.. Of course we ask for flexibility because the work depends on the weather ... could be morning or afternoon ... it depends
