    Are you a animal lover and whant to help us take care of them? :) Then this is the right place for you. Looking for someone who wants to help Us take care of the day to day chores on the farm and in the family life. One day maybe you fix in the stables , one day maybe you take the kids for a walk I the forest or just play games whit them.
