We really enjoyed and appreciated Vera’s help. She was very respectful of us and our home, and our schedules. Vera cleaned up after herself and was cheery and always helpful, often going “ above and beyond “. She is quite comfortable helping in the garden and the kitchen. Thanks Vera and safe travels for the rest of your sabbatical.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience for our first work-away in Denver, Colorado. Arriving with an open mind, we were blown away by the incredible two weeks we spent there. Michael and Clare epitomize the true American dream family! Their home is very comfortable, warm, and welcoming, surrounded by love and an incredible family spirit.

Every morning, we were motivated to wake up (have coffee with Clare) and get to work, and it was our pleasure to assist them with their wonderful property. Michael is an encyclopedia of organic gardening, and we learned so much from him. His knowledge and passion were truly inspiring, and it made our work even more enjoyable.
When they mentioned gourmet meals being prepared, they were not kidding! Clare is an incredible cook, and it was a joy to watch Michael and Clare work together each evening to create delicious meals.

Leaving was very difficult as we felt like part of the family after our two-week stay. This experience will forever be cherished, and we are already discussing plans to return! Thank you so much, Michael and Clare!
