  Description

  Hello. This homestead consists of lots of chickens, ducks, three cats and lots of fish and frogs, plus many apple and other trees. Several humans are somewhat based here, mainly me and my three children.
  The project requirements at the moment are general clearing, fencing and chicken shed improvements, daily animal chores, tending to the orchard.
  I can offer many skills in exchange, I am a qualified and experienced language teacher (English and French), with many years of experience in permaculture and related practices - I have been learning to graft for several years now so can pass on the basic elements of this amazing art too.
  The home is bi-lingual, my mother tongue is English.
