Description
My children and my husband and I live outside of a cute little town called Vanderhoof BC. We recently purchased my grandfathers farm. I love to garden and the new place has a huge garden and I’d like to fill it with vegetables and flowers. We own cows, goats, chickens dogs, cats and horses. I have my own healing/coaching business which is my passion and want to be able to work that more . Our dream is to be completely self sufficient one day and we are working toward that dream. The farm we bought is a very magical place where I spent a lot of my childhood making memories. We don’t live at this place, we live about five minutes down the road at our family farm house. The cabin use to be my grandparents cabin and is very cozy. It has a private bedroom, power, bathroom, washing machine, fridge and a wood cook stove for workaways to use :) . We still share the cabin for a few hours at a time here and there but the back room is for the workaways only.
I have so many projects planned for the next couple years, such as building pens, adding on to buildings, building small cabins, setting up a healing centre, and the list goes on. I need someone who can help me with my ideas one dream at a time. The work here is hardly ever the same every day which I love <3
We are caring, easy going, hard working farmers with huge dreams and excited to bring in people from all over the world to help us with our dream and to learn from one another :)
