Description
We are an older couple, living in the tiny Victorian country town of Guildford, 10 mins from Castlemaine and 20 from Daylesford. It's located with lots of historical places, wineries, breweries, cafes, art and music close by to explore. We love the area and our home has lots of fruit trees, vegie beds and a greenhouse. Our gardens are fairly big, and we are finding it harder each year to keep up with its maintenance so would love help to get on top of everything. We are vegetarians, have a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home so you will have a bedroom and bathroom to yourself to use and look after. We have a very friendly Jack Russell dog called Frankie.

Help
We would like general garden help, weeding, mulching, pruning, whipper snipping and other with all the tools provided. There are several other projects we would like to do, landscaping and painting at some stage all to try and make maintenance of the areas easier. We would be doing most tasks together and sharing new skills. Some help with housework would be appreciated sometimes too.

Bedroom with Queen bed, heating and cooling, own bathroom and separate toilet. We are vegetarian and so will provide vegetarian meals on working days. There is a second refrigerator for use to store any other particular foods or drinks they would like to have.
We will offer 3 vegetarian meals a day and will provide room, in a second fridge, for anything else they personably may want, or need. The fridge will mean we can leave ingredients for times when we may not be readily available. -
