    Description

    Hi, I am redoing my natural garden on a 1000 sqm property. There are some chickens and a cute dog. help would be greatly appreciated in the garden and around the house. So really the work is about tending to weeds and grooming the vegetables and fruit, mainly beeries of all sorts. Also I want to improve the chicken pen, improve the net to keep predators out.
    My boys 10 and 13 and I, would would love to learn about your story and culture.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We speak Deutsch, English and the boys speak Russian. We love to eat together, cook vegetarian meals and also some fish. We can sit by the fire in the evening. So all in, I believe staying with us will teach an open and international environment to our guests and we love to have somone join us more like family rather than just a friend.

    Like already mentionend, the main task is to prepare ground for planting and also trimming some bushes. Tending to the weeds and keeping the berries and vegetables strong and growing. Also want to fix a net in the chicken pen to keep predators out. If there is time, improve the drive away and front of house. All in all it should be more of a cultural exchange and less strictly work.
