Description
We live in a forested area of Montana yet a short drive from a quaint town and amazing alpine hiking country. We are remote workers with 1 German Shepherd and lots of outdoor room to walk or hike. We have land that needs constant care in the form of removal of dead and fallen trees. Cut, split and stack are summer activities that help us to stay fit. Yet we need help and want to share both the help and our idylic lifestyle.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Help with Eco ProjectsGardeningDIY and building projectsAnimal CareCreating/ Cooking family mealsHelp around the houseGeneral MaintenanceCultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are international travels and therefore welcome exchange of ideas and culture. We are vegetarians that often cook on an open camp fire in the summers. Jake is certified as an ESL teacher and speaks Spanish. We expect that our lifestyle may be contagious and that couples that like the forest will ask to come back.
Help
We are looking for a fit and adventurous couple to help in the forest 2 to 4 hours per day, 3-5 days per week. Comfortable yet strong hiking or work boots will make your feet happy. We expect you to participate in other daily chores and meal preparation. Yet we want you to feel like you are on vacation.
You will carry wood short distances, push or pull a cart or wagon, pile or stack cut wood, and drive an ATV work vehicle.Languages
