    Description

    // Need help until October 31st in Sudbury landscaping //

    I have a big landscaping project I need help finishing. The project is for one of the biggest homes in Sudbury. I have a huge 3 bedroom century home airbnb rented until the end of October. The work will consist of walls, walkways, patios, gardening, planting flowers, river rock, spreading mulch, placing triple mix & topsoil, etc. You can help with heavier work or the lighter work depending on your fitness levels.

    I have two workawayers helping me now, but one is leaving at the end of September and need more help! We are fairly chill, with typical days being from 10am-7pm. Pay will be between $18 for low experience up to $35 for skilled trades. Please be honest about your experience and abilities. Must have proper working visa. Accommodations provided, but not food. Car trips to town, grocery stores etc provided. Adventures & Canadian experiences provided :)

    As someone who has also done lots of travelling, I know what guests are looking for... Outside of work, I take workawayers into the local community, go to the recreation center, see local sites and tourist activities.

    There is work available starting November as well.

    I would like to hear from you if you think you'd be a good fit for this Workaway!

    -Mike

    You will have your own private room, with shared bathrooms/house. I will do my best to make sure everyone is a good fit, similar age, similar interests, as meeting other workawayers is a big part of the experience and reason you come to Canada :) Muskoka on weekends etc., you will have a cabin to stay in on the river.

    What else ...

    In Muskoka, my small town is 350 people. We have a brewery, small town pub, restaurants, cafe, general store etc. About 15 minutes away there two other towns of 15,000 people for more shopping/outings etc. Muskoka is known for cottaging, camps, tourism and beautiful nature.

    Sudbury, where the project until the end of October is, is a city in the middle of the forest and it has 170,000 people. Check it out on a map, it's a cool spot.
