Description
I am a start up smallholding, close to major surfing town in Northwest Ireland. I live with my young son and we have a dog and 4 hens. I have a background in organic horticulture and have studied permaculture design and i have worked in commercial growing and volunteered on various natural build projects. Over the years I have gathered a good bit of knowledge and I also have an interest in biodynamics. I live in a cottage style house and a few years ago we built a hempcrete extension. I work from home most days in a professional job, and in my spare time I have been setting up a permaculture garden with an edible landscape of an orchard and fruit bushes, and also a polytunnel and kitchen garden.
My home is a 20 minute walk from a small seaside holiday town, which is famous for it's surfing with beautiful beaches, and on the other side a 15 minute walk brings you to a beautiful lake and mountain backdrop. There is a major town a half hour drive south and a good local bus service. My home is pretty central for exploring Northwest Ireland, being on the border of Sligo, Leitrim and Donegal and a 20 minute drive from Fermanagh. -

Aide
As i work full time from home, I have little regular time to spend in the garden and polytunnel, but i know what needs to be done. I am looking for someone that can work on their own initiative and knows the basics about growing food. There will also be bigger projects - starting new beds and building mobile coop, tending to trees in the orchard, and these will be jobs done together, time permitting.
I will provide accommodation, a double bedroom and your own door entry, with shared kitchen. I do not provide meals and you must buy your own food. I have a busy life outside of work with my son, and meal times are irregular, so meals will not be eaten together. -

I have wifi but the connection is not great, so really you need your own back up. I use the wifi during the day for my own work.
