    Description

    We are from Flores Island, in the Azores, Portugal. We have a project of greenhouses for the production of ornamental plants, flowers and vegetables all organic, about two years. Last year we lost five with the storm, we are looking forward to recovering them so we can continue with our project. We have a house with 2 floors to recover that in the future will be for rent.
    We also need someone who can help with the daily chores of the house.
