    Description

    Hello,
    I am currently launching a new chapter in my life. I sold my home and have bought a farm. We will be building this year and creating beautiful gardens , green houses , massage clinic and a home. Surrounded with teenagers, dogs and a farm cat named Rascal Boy.
    Ducks are soon to come!
    Extra hands are in need ! I need help building lasagna garden beds and pathways for the veggie garden! The seeds need to get into the ground soon!

    I hosted Student exchanges for years. The cultural experience, meeting new friends and building a sense of a global family with like minded individuals is where my heart is at.

    The farm is minutes to the beach, downtown , lakes , rivers and mountains. We are surrounded in nature with deer, bears, birds , dragonfly’s , bumblebees and hummingbirds.
    Jana 🙏❤️🙏
