IMMEDIATE AVAILABILITY
Hello friends,
Spring has arrived! Requirements are animal care, household duties such as laundry, cleaning, cooking.
We do have some wood to cut and stack and woodstove that will need to be kept fired up. Assisting with community task at the animal foodbank.
Please reach out to discuss.
******************
Our Workawayer cabin is almost complete and we are very pleased with the love and care that has gone into creating this space for you to stay inside. A space created by Workawayers before you. Each person who has stayed has contributed their talents to this structure and it’s slowly coming together. A bunk bed, for a shared sometimes co-ed stay is viewable in the photos section.
There is an outhouse and outdoor shower for hygiene facilities.
At our ranch we are creating an eco friendly environment on a First Nations Reservation. This will be a place of mindfulness and serenity. We are welcoming workawayers who are passing through while exploring Canada’s outdoors. Here you can practice English while participating in a variety of outdoor chores and learn more about Canadian First Nations culture!
We are starting a vegetable garden and welcome experienced gardeners to join us and help us expand and learn.
If you would prefer to tend to home making duties and cook and do housework to keep this Workaway machine running please let us know in your message. We would be happy to add someone to the team who is keeping this machine fuelled. You would be responsible for cooking meals for 6-10 people depending on how many are staying. Housework would included general duties of cleaning house and laundry.
We are easy going and have something for everyone here and also we are open and happy to share Indigenous culture with you! A truly authentic experience for you!
Bonus points if you indicate the dates beginning and ending for your stay that you are requesting and that you mention that you’ve read the entire posting here. Understanding that things are pretty plain and simple there is nothing fancy around here.
