At the moment are many diffrent typs of help to do here so everyone can find somthing what they want to do. The most work at the moment is to help with building, alot of wood work but also other materials are around. We just bought 2 old caravans what we would like to turn into tinyhouses . There we need alot of handyskills for exampel, cutting wood, roofing painting and welding. There is also gardening to do because we will have a lot of permacultur projects and helping with some animals aswell. We have 5 horses , some chickens and 3 dogs. The chickens and dogs they dont need much work but the horses they will need sometims some help to clean the area of them. Opposide you can learn how to ride a horse its much fun..
