    Description

    We are super open people living together in a close knit community. We have chefs, performance artists and two smallish beings (6 and 11 years old) living amongst us. We have been growing organically for 30 years and use the garden produce to cook delicious healthy food. We strive to live a sustainable lifestyle and our garden is key to this. We love to travel, learn and enjoy a good cultural exchange.

    We have a one acre organic walled garden.

    We have planted loads of trees that need caring for.

    We also have two children that don't go to school and we need some help babysitting.

    We ask our helpers for 4-5 hours a day five days a week. We are chefs so we share some delicious vegetarian food-

    During the helping days sometime share a lunch. We will provide all food for breakfast and dinner too but can prepare it yourself. :) On the days off we ask helpers to feed themselves.
