    Description

    We host a team of max. 5 people, 65 dairy cows summer and I process their milk into cheese and butter. The place is open from June to September. I am the alpine dairyman and most of the time at the alpine pasture (the shepherds are out in the fields with the animals during the day) and so I am also responsible for the physical well-being of the team (my wife & our 2 sons take on this task mostly during the summer holidays)
    Seeking someone interested in who has dairy processing and household chores.
    We also have a small inn, if you like you can help there too.
