    we are involved in permaculture and need help in order to change our rural place into the paradise that it could be. that means to work in the vegetable garden, plant fruit trees, maintain buildings and site - eventually construction of a hobbit house -
    we own 2 cats.
    we like peaceful individuals of all kinds and ages, no dogs, no smokers, please.
