Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We have a strong sense of community- participation in many local farm markets keeps us connected through the busy farm season. We hope to have someone bring culture to our kids and help them understand how others live around the world

Help
With a busy farm schedule , help raising our wonderful kids is going to be key in growing our business. We have two young girls , Lily 3 , Ella 6 & Jayda our niece who is 17. As a chef , I love to cook but after a long day of work at the farm it can be hard to get dinner on the table for a reasonable hour. With all sorts of beautiful produce at your fingertips, it can make for a creative cooks paradise. Cooking family meals and helping the household with daily tasks such as laundry and cleaning are things we also need help with. We have a wonderful yard with lots of space for the kids to play, so maintaining the yard is important to us as well. We are a sober household that have committed to putting our family and health first.
