Description
Hi there!
Me, my 10 year old son, our cats and rabbits and a bunch of super nice people 😊 live in a house 10 kilometres outside Varberg.
Do you love gardening? 🌱🍀🌿😃
We're in need of help to take care of our garden allotment in the city. We are looking for someone who loves gardening and can work independently, since we will be away mostly this summer. Tasks will be planting flowers and vegetables, cutting grass and weeding. The weed is growing like crazy! 🤪 You get there either by bus or bike, it's takes about half an hour.
The garden has a small cabin with a hotplate and kettle for coffee breaks ☕️ 😋and there is a dry toilet in the alottment area.
We mostly eat vegetarian food but sometimes meat as well.
You can get into town with bus (25 min) or train (7 min(but trains are currently cancelled)) or you can borrow a bike and bicycle (30 min). You get to Gothenburg from Varberg with train in 40 min.
We live next to a forest were you can go for a walk, listen to the birds and sometimes see roe deer and moose.
We have a garden that is overgrown and need some work. Our future goal is to make some space for chickens, rabbits and maybe pigs and sheep and we want to grow some vegetables as well.
The house is in need for some renovation inside that we would like to get some help with. It needs plastering, paint the walls, building etcetera.
Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
Looking forward to meet you! 🌸
Peace ✌️🕊💗
