Description
//I get lots of messages on here, I’ll likely only reply to those who I think will be the right fit for the work and group of workawayers//
Landscaping project- Workaway crew
Lakefront landscaping in Sudbury Ontario. Although my home and usual workaway is in Muskoka Ontario, I have a 3 month landscaping project in Sudbury this summer starting in June. The project is for one of the biggest homes in Sudbury. I will be renting an bnb house or cottage (will be booking early May) in Sudbury, to work Monday-Friday. You would get the option of staying in Sudbury on weekends, or visiting Muskoka. Sudbury is nice because working in the city there are no bugs during bug season. The work will consist of walls, walkways, patios, gardening, planting flowers, river rock, spreading mulch, placing triple mix & topsoil, building wooden garden structures, etc. You can help with heavier work or the lighter work depending on your fitness levels.
The plan is to get a crew of about 4 people to work on this project. Although the usual Workaway in Muskoka is fairly laidback, for this project, I do need Workawayers who have experience moving for a full day on site. I am happy to teach, as I will be on site. We are fairly chill, with typical days being from 9am-6pm. Pay will be between $18 for low experience up to $35 for skilled trades. Please be honest about your experience and abilities. Must have proper working visa. Accommodations provided, but not food. Trips to town, grocery stores etc provided. Adventures & Canadian experiences provided :)
As someone who has also done lots of travelling, I know what guests are looking for... Outside of work, I take workawayers into the local community, go to the recreation center, see local sites and tourist activities. This summer, I would also like to take some weekend backcountry canoeing & camping trips, as well as a BIG trip at the end of the project, if you feel like coming along.
My Muskoka, Ontario property that is in a lot of the photos, is a 150 acre riverfront property with over 2km of private shoreline and two waterfalls, it is where my usual Workaway/life/business is which is why I kept the photos. In the summer, I run an adventure business from this property. I am renovating the house on the river right now. Weekends could be spent in your own cabin on the river if you want to come down from Sudbury.
I would like to hear from you if you think you'd be a good fit for this summer Workaway!

Hébergement
In Sudbury, I will be renting a cottage, or house for 4 workawayers. You will have your own private room, with shared bathrooms/house. I will do my best to make sure everyone is a good fit, similar age, similar interests, as meeting other workawayers is a big part of the experience and reason you come to Canada :) If coming to Muskoka on weekends etc., you will have a cabin to stay in on the river.
