  Beschreibung

  I am a small local mushroom farm with a huge passion for environment, and thus working towards a circular economy. run the farm by myself with the help of my partner and one other person parttime. I am looking for someone to help out for a few hours per day with our farm during the summer and if all goes smooth, also take care of the farm a few weeks while we are away. The job can be either to help with the production side of things, or if there is interest, to (also) do some of the administrative part. Our one parttime girl is wonderful and helps out with production and deliveries a few hours a week.
  
  Sint Maarten is located in the Caribbean and is quite a thriving island with lots to do. The summer season is the 'low season' though still with plenty to do. The island can be great for nature (hikes, snorkeling, beaches, kitesurfing etc) or also for partying, all depending what you are into!
  
  We have a small but lovely apartment available up in the hill to stay in and accompanied by a lovely dog!

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  The Caribbean has a unique culture which is blended with many other cultures here in Sint Maarten, a melting pot of nationalities. We work on island time, whilst still enjoying a bit of efficiency !
  
  Being born here I have a lot of knowledge about our little island and where to go. I hope I can help show the best St Maarten has to offer!
  
  And having travelled the world (by boat) for 8 years, I am always keen to meet new travellers and people from different paths of life - let's connect!

  Arbeit

  Jobs that we would like to fullfill , though depending on experience and interest it could be a few of these:
  
  - production: meaning the preparation of substrate bags, harvesting, packing for deliveries as well as the deliveries itself (if comfortable driving) (For those with little knowledge it is very quick to learn.)
  - For those who have more experience or want to learn, we would love help with the lab work, inoculation, daily operations and planning.
  - additional jobs that can be done are working with quickbooks, helping with R&D for new varieties and byproducts. All in all, it is very open with what the role can be, and depending on the length of stay, I am also very open to teaching new skills.
  
  We have someone volunteering with us now who I taught Quickbooks skills which helped me to organize our accounts, and him to add a new skillset to his CV.

  Unterkunft

  While we are here, we have an appartment available next to our indoor farm, close to everything and in a flat area (convenient for walking to and from bus stops) which also has a wonderful dog as part of the apartment.
  
  If you want to also operate the farm while we are away , then our apartment is available with a 2024 pickup truck (manual) which is up in the hill 5 min away from the farm, and with a view over the island. It is very beautiful and quiet up there, a real gem of a spot.
  
  We will offer food to eat, either you can eat with us or we can provide some meals and groceries.

  Was noch ...

  Let us know what interests you and we can let you know! If you like to play music, we have several instruments to use (handpan, guitar, soundbowls, etc)
  
  For both apartments, we appreciate it if you respect the place and take care of it and keep it clean.
