  Help

  We are empty nesters ready for some changes! Damien (architect) and Uta (landscape designer) have planned a number of garden projects to be maintained around our family home and in the middle of Port Lincoln, South Australia. The projects involve weeding, mulching , planting, and raking. We always have odd jobs around the house such as sanding , oiling garden furniture, paint jobs and other maintenance as it arises.
  We are currently building a house and welcome help with final touches such as painting, paving, and we hope to construct a carport in the near future.
  Uta runs a vegetable garden which might need tweaking here and there.
  We are environmentally minded and try to make sustainable choices in whatever we do.
  We welcome helpers interested in preparing meals and cooking. If you are more the home type and enjoy housework there is also plenty of work to keep you busy.
