Description
We have just bought a property in the southwest of France and need help cleaning it up. We are a small family who have moved here from Australia and there is independent accommodation on the property
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
Farmstay help
General Maintenance
UN sustainability goals this host is trying to achieve
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are a French-Australian family so we have French and English spoken fluently. We are happy to teach and work in either language. We are just starting up our little farm/homestead. Over the next twelve months we plan to welcome some livestock including chickens and sheep and to keep accumulating firewood for winter months. Workers can expect to help out in a variety of ways including animal rotation, fencing, wood cutting and splitting, start up of our huge Veggie garden and many other tasks. We have a fun YouTube channel if you are keen to see who we are. There may even be some editing tasks in that domain if you know how to edit though this is not a business, just for fun.
There is never a dull day on the farm!
We can offer a private home with 3 bedrooms on 1500m2 and there is a farm car that can be used
Culturally we can offer market tours in nearby villages, winery tours, and other outings that helpers may desire.
Although the farm is private and secluded, we are only ten minutes from Shopping centres, cinemas and the Cahors wine region.
