Descripción
Hi! My name is Jay and I am a 38 year old woman from Nova Scotia, Canada. I live in a cabin on the North Shore of the Cabot trail, Cape Breton Island. I own and operate three cabins, run a traditional archery range, and host annual foraging / educational events around plants and fungi on the Cabot Trail all summer long.
I am really into foraging plants and fungi, cooking, archery and hiking. I have quite a bit of experience with work trades and woofers here in Cape Breton and other parts of Nova Scotia. I myself have been a woofer. I have worked with people from France, Germany, New Zealand, England and many places across the US and Canada. I truly enjoy helping people see the island, sharing my land, and pointing people toward the best experiences they can have.
As of the end of July 2025, my update is that I am looking to possibly get some help in August for a week or two with housekeeping or outdoor work (either), or in October helping me with wood stacking, hauling and splitting, painting inside the cabins, that kind of thing. If you have trail clearing / outdoor maintenance skills, that’s awesome, lots of that to do.
I can provide your own little cabin with a fridge and electricity as an accommodation. Bathroom very close by.

The biggest benefit of living here temporarily is being on the world famous Cabot trail, working a little, relaxing, exploring what Cape Breton Island has to offer during its most beautiful months. If you want to learn about plants and fungi, foraging, archery, outdoors, I will teach you what I can.
If you like working independently in nature, this is a great place to be.El anfitrión ofrece una paga acorde al salario mínimo

Right now I’d love to find someone with outdoor maintenance skills! I am doing the cleaning right now and have less time to develop my trails, signage, clear brush, and get ready for fire wood. I also would like to paint some things and hope to find someone good with that task.

Alojamiento
I am offering a 12x12 trapper cabin which will have power and is about a 25 second walk from a cabin that has a bathroom with standup shower/vanity/toilet. This is a building with wifi, power, water, laundry, sitting area and office space. You can have 24 hour access to this space.
Algo más...
Close to the Cape Breton Highlands National Park, beaches, hiking, etc. I will definitely make sure you have a good time! My last Workaway person learned a lot about foraging and went with me weekly to collect plants and mushrooms!

The work load was ideal, Jay would always check to make sure I was okay with it and was very flexible with hours so that I could also see as much of the island as possible.
