    Help

    We have so many exciting projects at our hobby farm that we would like help getting closer to the finish line.
    Now the priority is:
    - Some building projects around the homestead.
    - Tearing down old and preparing for new fences.
    - Clearing bushes and trees on our land.
    - Painting, carpentry and renovating on the farm.
    - Help take care of the horses and the other animals.
    So for now we are looking for somebody with carpenter experience.

    There are so many different chores/projects to do so we can probably find what suits you based on your skills and areas of interest.
