Just a temporary note: my messages page is not letting me reply for the last week or so. I've written to the site to try and have them fix it, but so far I'm still unable to return messages. Hopefully that will be fixed asap:
My name is Leo. I've been grateful to host Workaway cultural exchange helpers from all walks of life since 2012. We have helpers year round.
The best way to get a feel for life here is to read the reviews of the many wonderful people that have helped us over the years. If you have any questions please feel to to write and ask.
I give educational Buffalo tours every day in Summer and used to run survival courses in the past. My usual busy season is May through October.
We are a working buffalo/bison ranch in the beautiful Blaeberry Valley, 15 minutes north of Golden BC, 1 hour from Lake Louise, 1.5 hours from Banff, 3 hours west of Calgary, Alberta.
On the ranch you will find meadows, wetlands and forest with 360 degree mountain and glacier views. Enjoy the roaming buffalo, year round creeks and ponds with native fish and pristine frontage along the Blaeberry River, fed by the Mummery Glacier. We are surrounded by amazing vistas of the Canadian Rockies and the Purcell Mountains. Wildlife such as elk, moose, wolves, bears, puma, fox, osprey, bald eagles, black and grizzly bears and many other species of birds and native fish pass through this land.

You will learn first hand what life is like living in Canada with buffalo. I'm the only one that can go in on foot in the pastures with the buffalo (bison) though. They stay wild and will charge strangers! I love it here. Every helper I've had has loved it here too and I appreciate your help very much.
Ayuda
We are raising chickens, rabbits, the buffalo and planting a bigger vegetable garden this spring. We are trying to eat as much as possible from the land.
There's lots of work to be done on the property - farm chores, building projects, cleaning, housekeeping, signs, recycling, painting, fencing, laundry, feeding animals, gardening, stacking/storing wood, shoveling snow, etc.
Idiomas hablados
Inglés: Fluido
Alojamiento
In exchange for 5 hours of help a day, there are 2 very nice cabins, private lofts above the workshop & kitchen and 2 campers, 24 ft and 16 ft until the weather gets too cold. We share the indoor bathroom and kitchen and there's an outhouse with a view. We have 3 bicycles to borrow, and trails to the river and a pond to swim in.
We provide you with food. We often eat together and you are free to prepare your own meals and eat when you wish to.

My time at Leo’s was amazing. Couldn’t have asked for a better first workaway experience. The place is indescribably stunning, the work is actually fun (taking care of those beautiful rentals is really a pleasure) and Leo is the kindest person with beautiful soul and a big heart. I’ll never forget my month in Blaeberry Valley. Take care, Leo!
