The help is about 20hrs a week. Usually 5 hrs a day, 4 days a week, so there's 3 full days off each week. Or, if you want more full days off , you can work three 7ish hr days & have the rest of the week for other adventures.
Mostly we need help with cleaning & gardening projects: weeding, planting, mulching, looking after the vegie garden & for those that can handle machines: ride on mowing & whippersnipping.
We are particularly keen to have people with: building, carpentry, plumbing, bricklaying, tiling, electrical, sewing, IT, audio & video skills, as we have many projects on the go.
We also do audio visual installations @ events on the weekends & often need help setting up & operating sound systems, lights & video projects.
