I recently bought an abandoned horticulture farm, and I am in the works to set up a mushroom farm and intend to start growing edible plants and flowers i work organically based on the principles of permaculture
But before I start growing anything I have to do a lot off work to do.
The place has been not been used for approximately 20 years, so there is a lot of cleaning up to do.
at this point in time i can offer a good and warm place to stay but no food
i am doing some light work and if you can help around 2 hours on the week days on averege i am happy
i am super flexible about almost every thing

You can learn to grow mushrooms flowers and vegetables, and do all sorts off jobs in and around the farm and the greenhouse.
The farm is located 10 kilometers south of Emmen which is the biggest town in the north off Holland.
I have got some bicycles they can be used to explore the surroundings. There are shops and bars basically on walking distance from the farm.
The help required, is all sorts off general cleaning off the area from weeds, branches & old planting pots my farm was abandoned for a few years so there is some fixing up to do.
Some light carpentry work, getting the fruiting rooms for the mushrooms ready and operational.
And general gardening and planting vegetables and edible flowers.
