Maintaining and watering gardens and trees. Mowing/slashing grass. tree pruning, rock picking. also fencing, painting, splitting and stacking wood etc plus more. Inside is general housework, to sometimes helping with cooking. Helping to prepare the evening meal and also cooking would be great. You would need to be able to work independently, and in a timely manner. Having initiative would be helpful. Daily tasks will be set.
