Beschreibung

Hi there! Having grown up surrounded by workaways who were living on my family's farm, I am excited to continue my travels in Europe and beyond. Building community and sharing experiences with people has always brought me joy and I look forward to cultivating relationships in new places. One of my overarching goals for my trip is to volunteer on homesteads and farms that follow permaculture principles and live a self sufficient lifestyle.
In January 2025, I participated in a 2 week Permaculture Design Course in Portugal to obtain my certificate. I would therefore be ever so happy to put my knowledge into practice and help with any projects and designs you are envisioning!

Was könntest du arbeiten?

As an avid gardener of 9 years, I have developed a strong passion for growing food and incorporating self sufficiency into my life. Each summer, I tended to a 1/4 acre plot where I planted a variety of crops over the years, from melons and asparagus to flax and indigo (for spinning and dyeing). I incorporated permaculture and regenerative farming practices including sheet mulching, companion planting, home-made compost applications, housing mason bees, and establishing pollinator gardens. I have operated small tractors with equipment including front loader, mower, and cultivator.

To broaden my gardening horizons, I spent 5 months in Kauai on an organic high production vegetable and fruit farm where I lived with a close-knit community. During this time, I gained experience working weekly markets, packing and delivering produce to local grocery stores, and tending crops at all stages of growth.

Working in the hospitality/customer service industry from a young age, I have acquired robust interpersonal skills being in fast paced environments, equipping me with the ability to navigate challenging situations. I possess a strong work ethic and willingness to expand my knowledge when it comes to learning new skills.

Growing up on a farm, I have many years' experience caring for a variety of animals including dogs, horses, goats, pigs, cows, poultry, etc. I have been riding horses since the age of 9 so I am very comfortable working with and being around them. I am also familiar with milking cows both by hand and in a dairy parlor.

I consider myself to be adventurous, adaptable, and motivated. I seek opportunities to give back to the environment and the community as I travel to new places, so if there is the option to do so, I would be very interested in learning more!

Thank you :)
