Description
General maintenance of property. 100 percent work away experience guaranteed! I have only two reviews so far. 5/5 stars...I think we should have 100 percent rating IMO. I am told that our 85 percent rating is due to the fact that WA counts quantity not quality... 5/5 for our first time "ain't bad" though hu? OK enough ranting...hahaha. Antonio (from Spain) didn’t have time to review me before his subscription expired. He was a fantastic 3 month work away here and we are now life time friends!
Gig Harbor 7 acres . I am just starting and need help in the garden. Permaculture knowledge helpful but not necessary. I am a Master Gardener with Permaculture experience. I need help building interior project, painting and general household chores. L, in addition to the gardens.
Eventually, I would use my property and a training site for a variety of lost arts such as canning, bee keeping, composting and making dirt, solar dehydration of fruit, and solar cooking, straw bale building, to name a few
Accommodations are an unfinished apartment. I need your help to finish it! Please be prepared to work about 4 hours per day 4 days per week. I will provide dinner for the days we work together. Social drinking ok, but no smokers please.
I have worked on a small food farm in northern Costa Rica. I can teach about gardening, Permaculture and living off the land year round. I have traveled in Central America, France, Spain, Italy and can make recommendations. I grew up on the East Coast and know a bit about traveling there and parts of the US in between too. I speak Spanish pretty well. I just retired from being a nurse for 35 years!
In your free time, there is a lot to do here, you can bike easily from the house and there are waterways for kayaks and summer swimming.. The hiking is very nice.
