    Description

    Hello, we are looking for helping hands on a farm on the southwest coast of Portugal. The property is located on a river that marks the border between the Algarve and Alentejo. We are a small private farm and live in a shared apartment. A man, a woman with a baby, a dog, two cats and a few farm animals. The farm needs to be brought up to scratch, so there is a bit of tidying up to do. We will plant and look after the garden and look after the animals. A driving license would be an advantage. There is a relaxed atmosphere, you will receive food and a small room to live in. We produce all food exclusively for our use and for our animals. No products from our farm are sold.




    Hallo, wir sind auf der Suche nach helfenden Händen auf einer Farm an der Südwestküste von Portugal. Das Grundstück liegt an einem Fluss, welcher die Grenze von der Algarve nach Alentejo ist.

    Wir sind ein kleiner privater Bauernhof, wir produzieren alle Lebensmittel ausschließlich für unseren Gebrauch und für unsere Tiere. Es werden keine Produkte unserer Farm verkauft.

    Wir leben in einer Wohngemeinschaft. Ein Mann, eine Frau mit Baby, ein Hund, zwei Katzen und ein paar Hoftiere.

    Der Hof muss auf Vordermann gebracht werden, also stehen ein paar aufräumarbeiten an.
    Wir werden den Garten bepflanzen und pflegen, die Tiere versorgen.

    Ein Führerschein wäre von Vorteil.

    Es herrscht ein entspanntes Arbeitsklima, ihr bekommt Verpflegung und ein kleines Zimmer zum wohnen.
