    We have a small family hobby farm on 160 acres just outside Saskatoon which is a nice tourist destination, such a beautiful city.
    We have horses, donkeys and chickens, and pigs seasonally.
    We have four young children and are a homeschool family.
    The workaway help would be to interact with 2 kids while the other 2 are homeschooled. Take part in grocery pick up and meal prep we will teach you lots about us and would love to learn about you, your country and maybe your favorite meals. The workload is light and we try and make sure you see a good part of the countryside as well if you would like to see the city we could arrange for you to visit the city to see what it is all about.
    Helpers must enjoy interacting with children and animals!
