  Arbeit

  We require the outside of our whole house to be washed. This will involve using a hose and a house wash mix and scrubbing - possibly using a water blaster and may involve using a ladder. We also have weeding in the garden to be done. We welcome any keen cooks to cook meals with fresh ingredients. There will also be odd jobs in and out of the house. Prepping and painting old building. Stripping fences - taking old nails out off fences on the farm using a hammer.

  We have 3 children so we expect our visitors to be good with children. We are an active family, like to keep fit. We are up early getting children off to school and going to work and expect people can work unsupervised and tidy up after themselves. Volunteers can come into town when I am travelling in and go to places of interest while I am in town. The train station is 20 minutes from our home so I can drop you here if you are wanting to go to Wellington (1 hour 20 minute train ride from Masterton). If you have your own vehicle, you will have the freedom to visit local areas once your hours or work are complete.
