Help
We have a variety of work here. We farm and garden, as well as a few different building projects in various stages.We are willing to teach construction work so all we need is an positive attitude! We try to work in concert with the weather, cool in the morning we work outside gardening etc. As the day warms up we find inside work to stay cool, and when the heat is on we go to the beach.
