  Hi FIRSTLY YOU MUST BE IN CANADA AT LEAST 2 WEEKS BEFORE CONSIDERING COME TO MY FARM.
  I am seeking help in carpentry labour. My farm is an optimistic safe place. For those of you stuck as of late, perhaps we together can ride this crazy world order thru .
  Looking for help on a small farm (I sold off my sheep flock ...). I have some ranch work as we are changing from my generation to the next. Learn and we can explore local area, in Alberta, Canada. Your work involves cleaning, and housework, as well to attend community activities so you meet many new friends. I have no more animals.
  
  The work can be hard and very interesting , but so is life In the countryside. We are. Building a barndomineum ( a home within my new metal barn). Your work and family time is within the Workaway guidelines. The sun sets late here in Alberta ( in summer) and we like to rest in front of an open fire under the stars listening to the coyotes at night.
  
  Expect to work 5 hours a day 5 days a week and enjoy my friends, family, neighbours and all the area has to offer the rest of the time. If we could take day trips into the mountains for hikes and to the area towns to visit the local art gallery, shops and pub. I am 5 minutes from Turner Valley.
  
  Experienced former farmer and longtime member of the local community seeking help on a small hobby farm. I am active and fit and like to spend my days working outside. If you would like experience working on my farm, helping garden, painting my house, and to tidy and setting up we will learn a lot. I hope for carpenterial skills come with you?
  long time ago I worked hard to earn my degree in agriculture. I have horses and cattle (only in summer) and there are lots of tractors, trucks, and other equipment that needs maintenance and repair, as I am selling down my property.
  
  I have traveled many countries and lived in Kenya, UK, Australia, Japan mostly on farm exchanges myself. In last years, I myself became a workaway myself at age 67, engaged to a lovely woman from Mexico…I took the Workaway plunge and “ I” enrolled to volunteer workaway in Mexico. A few years ago I was travelling like you in Scotland and England, and Poland. I often take global farm guests on road trips (if allowed) to see and visit other ranches and farm people. I enjoy the company of others who like to learn about the land, the area, and work with animals and aren't afraid to get dirty.
  I am always having trouble with new technology and would appreciate any computer help you can give me. I am trying to cope with Windows 11??? and my ipad and my iphone and would love it if they recognize each other!
  
  I prefer not Vegetarian, vegan or food allergies or intolerance, etc and not arriving late or early.I request you non smoker in my house and to eat all foods, respect my home and to “ pitch in” helping or looking for chores in thanks.
  Couples preferred.

  Rural Alberta offers spectacular views of the Rocky Mountains and the rolling foothills. I was raised in the area and my family is one of the original pioneer families. Most of my brothers still live farm and ranch in the area. I go hiking with a regular group often. The Town of Turner Valley is only 5 minutes away and there is a library, restaurants, shopping and lots of local culture. Pub night is Wednesday nights. I show my guests the countryside and the people, while they help and learn from my many projects on the go.

  Arbeit

  I am available to host farm and some gardening and perhaps tree planting only in springtime or autumn. We often celebrate family events together, so you are expected to join in, please.. I need someone who likes to work unsupervised on building projects so if you have carpentry skills I can put them to good use. I want help in completion of a barn that other guests and I have been working on. It is not difficult and no former experience is necessary as we plan it together. General farm chores such as help gardening and helping to cook fresh, healthy, local meals is part of your daily schedule. I am really in need of someone to help me with my computer skills.

  Either in the main ranch house or in a camper trailer nearby. We have a swimming pool sometimes available. We all share in household chores, and I am happy to teach you to saddle a horse yourself.
