Description
Hello there,
The time has come for our little farming community to come to an end, a new chapter full of adventures is lurking on the horizon... Before I take to the road and become a workaway volunteer myself, I will need help to get moved out of my farm that I have been renting for the past 7 years.
I will mostly need help with Milling timber, processing firewood, general cleaning up and clearing out!
In return I would be very happy to show you some of Irelands finest spots and introduce you to our culture.
I like to stand up paddle board, mountain bike and go camping, you would be welcome to join me. I am also developing my meditation practice and currently trying to incorporate 1hr of meditation into each day.
your accommodation will be a private room in my house. shared house hold duties and cooking of daily meals. I am vegetarian, mostly. Also gluten free and dairy free so no problem catering for special dietary requirements.
I Hope share some good times with some beautiful souls.
positions available immediately
Dan & Millie (my dog) :)

The farm is nestled into the Irish countryside in the beautiful county of Kilkenny. The farm is set along the banks of the river Nore and is roughly 10km from the historic and medieval city of Kilkenny.
Thank you,
Dan
