Help
I’d love help in the garden, mostly the veggie garden! I need to reclaim it !!!
Your accomodation will be a wee caravan that we have restored, but I need help to paint the outside (& some youthful creative ideas)!
Also, at some point I’d like to make steps down to the river, for easier access!
The cows need attention infrequently, but we have a new set of yards! The chickens just need feeding & roam over our WHOLE property!!!!
Basically, we like fun & want our quests to enjoy that with us!
