    Description

    My name is Raj and I have one children. I'm 45 year old and my daughter is 14. We live in Chitwan nearby the national park. The house is 15 minutes biking from the Chitwan National Park so in one of the most beautiful places in Nepal.

    We have a vegetable garden that we want to grow with more vegetables and other plants. We need help doing that so we'd like people volunteering with gardening and plant growth. Anyone is welcome but if you have gardening experience or knowledge is surely better.
    We actually are running it all by ourselves and we need some help doing it.
