Peter was a great help. He didn't arrive with a lot of experience, but did have a lot of enthusiasm. He learned to prune grape vines and ended up pruning 2 blocks of vines. He was a great help and good company as well.
I can easily recommend him to other hosts!

I spent three weeks with Jeff at his property helping out with what I could. This was my first workaway site and I'm very grateful for having had the opportunity. Jeff is a good man who shared many things with me and sparked my interest in many new things. Thank you. Iron sharpens iron.
