  Description

  I live on several acres of grassland in the high desert of Arizona. It is located in the middle of the state. From here you can easily visit Sedona, the Grand Canyon and Phoenix.
  I rent rooms.
  I am making a discovery prairie garden, with paths , a small barefoot trail, a labyrinth and a number of chairs close to trees. The idea is to help visitors, family and friends connect with local nature, have a sense of place and appreciate the grassland unique landscape, views, wildflowers and plants.
  
  The help needed is to maintain the pathways which have already been created, line new ones with rocks, clean up the weeds and dead branches and gardening, clean the raised beds cut the grass and miscaleneous maintenance projects.
  
  I welcome your talents, your knowledge , your creativity and your curiosity,
  
  I grew up in France. This could be your opportunity to practice your French without leaving the country. Or if you are French, I could share my experience of living in the USA and in the Southwest.
  
  I can introduce to the sights around Prescott Valley and its different activities.
