Help
Our section is 3/4 acre so not extensive. Assistance required is pruning in the garden, Placing a walkway with cobblestones, Cladding the under story of a tiny home we have situated on the property. and closing off tasks that complete the total renovation of our house. Nothing involving heavy equipment, I am slow moving due to a muscle condition so and extra pair of hands is required, The two men work 6 days per week, so have little time to do what is required.
