Denman Island has long been a haven for people escaping from busy urban centres. The island is famous for dances, festivals, quiet roads, and beautiful scenery. Yoga is a prominent activity, as is gardening, and volunteerism. Many artists have made Denman Island their home for decades, and as a result there is a thriving local artistic community.
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
We are mainly looking for help with the children while we work. Time would be spent on our land/house for the most part. Help in the house, cleaning our rental property might be another duty. There is also a vegetable garden that needs tending to at times but nothing strenuous: weeding watering. We have a ride-on lawn mower to cut the grass. IF the skills and interest are there, there are also a number of small building projects to get involved with, such as fences, garden gates, a dock and so on. But like mentioned, the priority would be childcare.
