    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I am an Irish person living in The Netherlands, I wish to utilise my garden and learn about the plants there so that I may teach this to my grandaughter when she is old enough, for the workawayer they would receive first hand experience on how they could harvest and ustilise what they have harvested, explore the area which has lots of museums and generally experience Dutch culture first hand. The only thing I would like in return is that they help me sort my garden so that it will be more manageable for me later
