  Description

  I'm a nice guy and ecologist by spirit and it's my job.. I plant thousands of trees per year. I have a beautiful property in the nature where, between forest and orchard I plant trees.
  I'd be happy to lend a hand, and in exchange you'll certainly get to live in a perfect, peaceful place if you love the forest and serenity.
  I have an NGO's nursery where I raise wild trees as well as old fruit varieties. If you'd also like to learn how to graft, here's your chance. I'm a master grafter and I graft hundreds of trees a year.
  I am fluent in English, welcome 😁
  
  Je suis un mec sympa et écolo, je suis aussi écologue de métier qui plante des milliers d'arbres. J'ai une belle propriété dans la nature où entre forêt et verger je plante des arbres.
  Un coup de main sera le bienvenu et en échange vous aurez certainement vivre dans un lieu parfait au calme si vous aimez la forêt et la sérénité.
  J'ai une pépinière associative où je fais lever des arbres sauvages mais aussi des variétés fruitières anciennes. Si vous avez envie aussi d'apprendre à greffer ça sera l'occasion. Je suis maître greffeur et j'en greffe des centaines par an.
