  Description

  Denise and Loren are self directed independent, gardeners, carpenters, hay farmers, forester and logger. We recently purchased a run down hay farm and want to bring it back to life.
  Spring through Fall 2024 we are asking for help with clearing brush and small trees that have grown in around the hay fields. Haying and other farm work. We offer a private room in our farm house in the Blaeberry near Golden. We have been hosting helpers since 2003 and to our knowledge our helpers have always had a good time, experienced the area and left as friends. And if you want practice with your English skills, we can make sure you have time to practice with us.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We are your typical Canadian lifestylers. Denise is a Forester and Loren is the local Fire Warden in the summers and jack of all trades outside of fire season. We have 2 dogs and 2 horses. We like our helpers to enjoy the area and us. We grow some of our own food and cook both veggy and meaty. We enjoy helpers who want to learn new skills whether it is gardening, yard and trail maintenance, or helping with a new building project. Denise likes to encourage helpers to speak English and is always looking for opportunities to help them improve their language skills.
