We're Sarah & Tyler - a young newly wed couple who started up our own organic veggie garden in summer 2021. We eat a vegetarian (mostly vegan) diet and try to live as simply and natural as possible. We’re a laid back, easy going couple and we’re excited to be moving into our second season of market gardening. I, Sarah, have taken quite a few courses on organic growing methods as well as permaculture courses, and Tyler is the handyman who helps me with all the garden work. We garden about a quarter of an acre and grow almost every type of vegetable we’re able to in our growing zone. We both work full time so we would love some extra help in the garden, and after learning a lot through courses and experience in our first season, we’re happy to share that knowledge with others, and learn from you as well.

Mantenimiento general
Enjoy summer in the small cottage town of Bobcaygeon. Simple lake town lifestyle while learning how to grow your own food, put permaculture practises into place, and how to start a produce plot from the ground up. When not working we'd love to show work awayers around our beautiful cottage town. There are so many hidden gems to explore such as trails, lakes, swimming spots, etc.
We are looking for a work awayer to help us in the garden and around the farm. You will be tending our organic produce garden (planting, weeding, harvesting, garden maintenance, cleaning up the land (picking up rocks, etc.). It's a 1/2 acre garden we just started from the ground up in 2021. Every month throughout the season will look a bit different in terms of tasks.
Farm experience helpful but not required.

Workawayers will have their own space in our 26 ft trailer. Trailer has a full kitchen - fridge/freezer, stove/oven, toaster, microwave, kettle, coffee maker. It has a double bed, bunk beds, and a pull out couch. It has a composting toilet if needed, but shower and majority of bathroom breaks will be in the bathroom inside our home, as the trailer is not hooked up to running water. Large water cooler is in the trailer for drinking, using for kettle, cooking, etc.
(see photos for trailer reference)
Includes 1 meal a day - we will stock the trailer with everything for your first meal of the day: milk, bread, cereal, english muffins, oatmeal, yogurt, juice, jam/pb, eggs, fruit, granola bars, etc.
Accommodation exchange.
We're located outside (8min drive) of a small cottage town/village 1.5 hours from Toronto. Our home is right on the lake and surrounded by many lakes for swimming, fishing, boating, etc. The town itself has a few pubs, some restaurants, coffee shops, and touristy shops. Car may be available some days.
