Description
Hi Workawayers,
We are Stephen and Eva.
We would love somebody to come and help us who has a passion for outdoor life and gardening and working outside sometimes around animals.From January to April is a busy with new life being born on the farm.
We have an old farm house,a farm and large country garden.Very quiet rural area up a long avenue with lots of trees and fields to explore.
I grow some plants for sale and also teach floral art and basic gardening.
I am working on new areas in the garden but need lots of weeding, strimming and lawn cutting leaf raking and general maintenance.
Some construction has not happened as yet because we need a workaway that’s good at building and carpentry and physical strength.
We have two Border Collie dogs and 3 farm cats and 5 colonies of Bees.
We have Cows and their baby calves will be arriving soon so it will be very busy.The Sheep will also be having their baby lambs.
The Bees are very busy so will need checking every week from April which hopefully a workaway can help me with and also extraction of honey in August..A workaway with previous knowledge would be a great help.
