You will experience the breathtaking beauty of Vancouver Island, as well as being close to the MT Washington ski hill. There is endless exploring: beaches, hiking trails, forests, golf courses, skiing, snowboarding, rivers & the ocean, wildlife, swimming, rec centres. Plus pubs, restaurants, theaters, festivals, cultural events, churches, farmers' markets, shopping,and so much more, all close by! We would love to share & learn gardening, animal care, meal prep & cooking ideas, open to your creativity!
Ayuda
We have a 2 acre hobby farm with 2 pet pigs, 2 alpacas, 2 rabbits, a small flock of chickens, 3 dogs and 3 cats. We have meat birds (chickens) in the summer. We have a small garden & greenhouse with untapped potential, as well as other projects around the property. We are looking for help with general animal care including dog walking, gardening, various DIY projects, fence repair/replacement, yard maintenance, organizing, decluttering, and household tasks such as general tidying/light housekeeping, meal cooking (mostly vegetarian), some shopping and running errands.

We can share food or keep food separate, however would love for you to come with cooking skills, in particular vegetarian or vegan, simple or fancy! If you cook, we will definitely buy the food!!

Our preference are workawayers ages 25+ to 35 years old, with some solid work experience under their belt. Self motivated, confident & able to complete tasks without supervision is very important.
Must love animals and people, and come with a caring heart. Please no pet allergies, as cats and dogs are in the home.

It's also a very lovely farm with very nice animals. The work was always good and never too much.
It was a nice part during my jouney in Canada! :)
