    The Bees are now quiet for the winter so there is not as much work with them now.A workaway with previous knowledge of Bees would be a great help from March onwards.

    Hi Workawayers,
    We are Stephen and Eva.
    We would love somebody to come and help us who has a passion for outdoor life and gardening and working outside sometimes around animals.The Garden is now in sleep mode but will be awakening soon.
    This is then a very busy time and due to work commitments we need some help.
    Workaways need to have knowledge and interest in farm life and gardening.
    We would love if people have iniative and like the work.


    We have an old farm house,a farm and large country garden.Very quiet rural area up a long avenue with lots of trees and fields to explore.
    I grow some plants for sale and also teach floral art and basic gardening.
    I am working on new areas in the garden but need lots of pruning , raking and general maintenance.
    Some construction has not happened as yet because we need workawayers that’s good at basic building and carpentry and physical strength.



    We have two Border Collie dogs and 3 farm cats and 5 colonies of Bees.
    The Cows and calves and Ewes and lambs will be arriving in the next few months and it will be very busy.
