Help
Help is needed in two main sectors : house renovations and agriculture. I'm renovating an old house from the 18th century and cleaning some abandoned fields to farm the food needed.
Timber harvesting is a big activity, i try to harvest the timber that i need for the renovations locally and there is a a sawmill to process it and make slabs that then need to dry.
Based on your skills and your willingness to learn i'll try to find the position that suits you best.
There is woodworking and blacksmithing shops, help is not needed but fun is guaranteed!Languages spoken
