Description
Springtime is coming, the garden is waiting for planting vegetables.
This winter we had much rain, the soil is wet and plants will grow fast
Do you like to work outdoor?Walk with my 4 dogs? Helping around and in the house and in the garden?
In springtime the biodiversity in nature and around the farm is awesome.
And the sun is so strong that you like to go to swim.
The rainy days are rare.
Bring with you a warm jumper , good shoes , also to change when they get wet and clothes for warm weather.
If you like nature all is flowering. You find in our valley nice possibilities for walking and jogging.
II am looking now for 1-2 persons who want to help on my farm near the beaches Salema and Boca do Rio( southwest of the Algarve), from middle of April .......,
There is also a parking place for a campervan and you can use a bicycle for to go to the beach or the village.
I edited 2013 a book about biodiversity in this area- for the identification of the fauna and flora around us.
Landscape: Hills with hedges and trees. I try to protect different habitats for wild animals. The beach Boca do Rio is 15 min away.
The food is vegetarian , enriched with the vegetables from the Bio market in Lagos.
You should have knowledge for cooking simple meals( only for dinner and weekend).
For water protection : degradable toilet articles( shampoo, tooth creme, soap). I try in different ways to reduce water consume. But now there is enough water for all🤩.
Also warm water shower.
Rooms: An independent apartment
for 1-2 people.
Saturday and Sunday. Free time .
One big bathroom .
The helper has to work every day 4 hours in the morning.
Free internet in the whole house.
The Supermarket Intermarché , the post office , and a little medical center you find in Budens.
You should have a health insurance.
Regards Therese
