Descripción

I'm new to Workaway but I've volunteered multiple times with the wwoof platform. My nickname is Joey. For the better part of the last 12 months, I've volunteered in the sunny tropical south of Mexico, multiple locations in the lovely Galicia region of Spain, teaching English to kids and adults alike in Casablanca, Morocco, and taking care of dozens of dogs 🐕 and other animals in a village north of there, helping out in a spiritual community in Belgium, including helping to set up an Indian style wedding, and farming in a small town north of London. I'm currently volunteering in Canterbury, feeding 🐐 goats and 🐖 pigs, clearing blackberry brambles and stinging nettle, gardening, and putting in fencing, among other things. In 2019-2020 I worked for 7 months, on Kickback Farm, a property in Rio Linda, California. Before that, I worked on 7 other properties for approximately 1.5 years in my mid-twenties. I've also helped friends with their gardens and light home repairs/ construction. I was a engineer in the army and learned how to drive and operate many different types of military and construction vehicles, mine clearance & demolitions among other things.

Some of my farming experiences have been - • working with lamas • helped a first time goat mother give birth, which is a cherished memory • wwoofed on a hobby flower garden/ farm on Vashon Island • collected berries & removed poison ivy from a historic property north of NYC • saved 2 birds 🐦 🐦‍⬛ from being stuck in garden netting • worked with micro greens • been the primary morning & night help to dozens of chickens 🐔 • planted & harvested many types of plants, including • many trees with and w/o jack hammers to get through hard layers of earth • worked with most all of the typical farm animals, dozens of dogs 🐕 and some. I've had a variety of farm experiences. While I am an amateur tourist farmer at best, helping people with their farming, gardening & homesteading visions is a joy.
