    People who enjoy practical tasks, outdoor work, and unplugging from tech

    Handy souls — whether you're great with a hammer, a rake, or a frying pan

    A sense of initiative and team spirit

    Kindness toward animals, curiosity for farm life, and a love for nature

    A willingness to embrace the simple things: starlit nights, campfires, and donkey rides 🫏✨

    sitting in a sauna while donkey watching and taking a bath below star heaven in a wood-fired hot tub asap being finished hopefully

    What we offer:

    A chance to live in close connection with nature and animals
