    Help

    We have planted 3000 native trees on our property which with our current drought situation are requiring constant watering by hand. This will be the main job 3-4 hours per day. Then will also have general gardening, lawn mowing, landscaping and then small jobs in and around the house like window cleaning. Expected 5 hours per day of work.
