Looking for help with bringing in fire wood, kindling, organising space, craft activities and games with the children and family in general, some basic gardening ( new veggie beds, garden design and planting) and general farm a maintenance.
This is a non commercial/ non business Workaway.

We offer a peaceful setting for workaways to learn and be involved in this evolving family centred project . We will involve you in our day to day life, each day will be varied and there is always something workaways can learn and teach us too.
We are in an isolated location ( 10 minutes by car to the closest village). We don't go out everyday, so this might not suit everyone. We have 12 hectare of beautiful land ( woodland and field) which allows workaways to find their own space where needed.
