Description

Hello everyone! Nature is a place that I call home, all aspects of it draw me in, from the tiniest of insects to the tall graceful hemlocks. I find passion in exploring the world around me, seeing how we are all connected on different levels. I'm an insect nerd, artist, and avid nature adventurer. I find happiness foraging, playing guitar, singing, meeting new people and I'm always looking to learn more about any topic. I'm a very open-minded and adaptable person. I'm shy at first but open up once I get to know a person more. I'm excited to explore the world

More details about your skills

I have a lot of experience working with all kinds of farm animals (especially goats and chickens). Growing up I took on goats as my passion project, learning how to care for them by volunteering with multiple different farms, eventually farm sitting, starting my own small hoof trimming business, learning to milk, and helping with goat brush clearing.

I worked for a dog walking business most of last year and run a small pet sitting business of my own.
Last year I also worked at a horse stable where I mucked out stalls, tacked up horses, groomed, hoof picked, and did lots of other equine tasks.

I grew up with parents who grew a lot of vegetables and fruits so I have some knowledge of cultivating the land, and permaculture practices. Over the past three years I've grown my knowledge of foraging wild plants and fungi in the northeast but I'd love to learn about these topics in other parts of the world.

I love to make art and would love to help design and create anything art related with you. This could range from photography to watercolor to jewelry making. I'd be really interested in making a mural.

I'm very detail oriented and am easily motivated to do tasks. I'm a quick learner so I'm up for learning new skills as well as strengthening the ones I already have.

What else ...

I would love to learn about and explore your favorite nearby nature spots and to hear why those spots resonate with you.

Some other creative things I enjoy: poetry and creative nonfiction, crocheting and knitting, watercolors, and tin whistle.

Also: someday I wish to build my own tiny house so I'd love to learn any types of knowledge related to house building.

I also am interested in building on my dairy goat knowledge, learning how to make cheese and other products. Learning how to weave and make fiber arts and fermented and canned foods are also of interest to me.
