Help
I have an old building over 350 years old i would like to restore and transform into a restaurant,my property is 40 minutes from negril and 20 mins from another popular beach called Bluefields, I also have many farm animals including Horses, cows, peacocks,sheep, goats and many more who just coexist on my family's 300acre property, non of them are caged but I do need help caring for the ones who need added food (that cannot be found in nature) and help with the health care of animals who are prone to injuries I will also be farming several crops and I currently have both bnb homes and experiences on the farm so wherever you feel you fit you are welcomed to visit and I will be very happy to make new friends.

Accommodation
It's a rustic farm house in which you will have your own room, bathroom and kitchen there is currently no hot water but I am working on fixing that soon, there is wifi and it is a farm so there are always eggs and vegetables that youll have access to, lots of fruits, there is already a caretaker as well on the property so if you need him to cook a meal he will be able to find the ingredients otherwise i will provide food if he can't help you out.
What else ...
There are so many beaches and rivers nearby so if you like negril you'll enjoy staying here. for public transportation you can take route taxis for 100jmd which is 77cents usd to savlamar and another 100jmd to either negril or bluefields, There is also a river on the property if you waant to go fishing but it is a bit of a walk and if you dont mind walking you can walk (20mins ) to a nice river to swim in as well.
