Description
Hi I'm Kylie, I'm nearly 60, and I have a property of 17acres in Sheffield. I have 1 dog, 1 cat 2 fish and 4 horses. I currently renovating my home and I am trying to be as ecologically friendly as possible. I have fencing and gardening projects that I would like help with, such as using tyres to create fencing. I would love to gain not only physical help, but inspiration from like minded people.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I am a social worker and work full time with families caring for foster children. I love to bake, make my own bread and syrups for cordials and home made jams. I have many fruit and nut trees that need their produce collected. The Tasmanian Trail passes right by my home, I am close to Mount Roland for walking trails and Lake Barrington for kayaking and swimming and I have a small auto hatchback that might be available for short sightseeing trips. I have wallabies, possums and other small creatures that come up to the house.
Help
I would like to build a small structure on a cement slab. I would love to be self sufficient with a raised garden bed to keep out of reach of the local wildlife, and I need help getting my fruit trees harvested and pruned. I need help cutting and stacking firewood. If you like horses, I can show you how to care for and even ride my horses.

There is a bus service from Sheffield in to Latrobe and Devonport - it's about a 20 minute walk from my home - or I can pick up and drop off in Devonport., if you don't have your own vehicle.
