    We are looking specially for couple or lonely travels to help us with daily farm chores such as gathering eggs, helping in the milking parlor or moving the cows out of the pen. In the kitchen you can help make yoghurt or cheese. We are all learning as we cook and this is our second year making these products so we look forward to sharing our experiences with you. Also with various maintenance tasks because the farm was many years abandoned. We expect enthusiasm, desire to learn and work, good predisposition, responsibility and good vibes.
