Help
There are many tasks on the farm, but in the summer help is needed with cleaning the 2 Air Bnb places. The barn apartment takes 2 hours to turn over and the Farmhouse takes 3-4 hours. In the summer there are usually 4-5 days when this happens. Other than the cleaning and preparation of the units, there is a need for simple gardening. Watering, a bit of weeding and harvesting some produce. This leaves plenty of time for hiking , biking , swimming and enjoying all the area has to offer. Summers here are spectacular!
