Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Communal cooking and socialising. Child activities and exploration in nature. Local food, concerts and workshops almost every week.
Share our knowledge from previous agriculture work, house renovations, alternative living. Offer insights into rural life and full time natural parenting.
Excited to learn as much as possible from other cultures/lifestyles and take inspiration or ideas from other people's experience in natural building, permaculture, homeschooling, etc.

Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
-Help with daily household routines; taking some strain off a pregnant toddler mother by helping with cleaning or playtimes.
-Help with gardening ; prepping beds, clearing spaces, planting etc.
-A chance to observe and learn about our natural building projects; indoor/outdoor renovations with cob, rocket stoves, design processes. We have lots of plans for projects you can learn about and watch in process.
-Longer term volunteers into the new year would be helping around the house as well; cleaning, maybe cooking for us, dog walking. Helping with daily things as we are in preparation for a home birth of our second child, an extra set of hands round the place is going to be beyond helpful in a very busy time for us.
