  Beschreibung

  We are an older couple (62 and 73) who has 31 beautiful acres, a crystal clear winding creek, 8 horses, and a renovated barn where we do weddings and events.
  
  Because our work is seasonal, it's hard to find consistent local help. We love the opportunity for cultural exchange!
  
  Our busy season for weddings are the Spring and Fall with May and October being the busiest months. We would appreciate help with the weddings on the weekends for which you will be paid and we could use help during the week with lawn/garden maintenance, fencing, building projects, house/barn cleaning, and if you are an equestrian, help with the horses. If you have knowledge with computers and marketing we could use those skills as well.
  
  Non-smokers please. Only room for singles. Sorry, no pets.
  
  We are 1 hour west of Nashville, TN. Nashville is the capital of the U.S. state of Tennessee and home to Vanderbilt University. Legendary country music venues include the Grand Ole Opry House, home of the famous “Grand Ole Opry” stage and radio show. The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, historic Ryman Auditorium, and the Bluebird Cafe are all downtown. If you are a songwriter or a fan of country music, this is the place for you.
