Infos

  Description

  I am a busy working Herbalist & Yoga Teacher, living in a rural location on half acre of land. I have one son 20 years and a 🐕 who lives inside. My son is studying music and media at university.
  
  The house is a renovated old cottage using many sustainable building materials and solar panels/ stove for heat. The workawayers room has a view of mountains. The area is very scenic with a large lake a short drive away. The work is predominantly outside maintenance weather permitting. Painting, powder washing, tree pruning grass cutting, veg weeding. Inside house work on bad days. We had a polytunnel installed a few years ago and still perfecting best crops, formation etc. Great if you have experience in permaculture ways inc no dig, partner planting etc. If you are wordpress Web dev savvy, it's also very useful. If you are interested in herbs and have a good command of English, you are welcome to assist in the dispensary. We eat flexi vegetarian. We can cater to vegans, gluten free etc. I like to walk in local spots and forage edible plants for food or medicine. Come and join our family for a couple of weeks with energy to offer and learn about herbal medicine & healthy living.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We are hosting helpers for 12 years and before that I woofed &/or travelled in different corners of the world. I have also lived in Sydney, Tokyo & London accross 15 years before returning to Ireland. You will be included in family days out when possible. Supported for your plans in sight seeing. Be immersed in a fun house with a working dispensary learning about Herbs and medicinal uses, foraging skills. You have access to bikes. Quiet friendly house. My son plays the mandolin although in truth he rarely plays since finishing school. I have also knowledge and skills of permaculture and hemp lime plastering. I like to live with minimum impact in harmony with communal approach. I appreciate people who are self motivated and intuitive.

  Hébergement

  Large comfortable bedroom on ground floor with double futon bed, desk and chair. Shared bathroom on ground floor. It is in large open plan renovated eco cottage. We eat Two meals a day & somedays a light lunch. Mostly we try to eat dinner together, other meals are a little dependent on schedule and help yourself style. If the workers want special food they can purchase themselves when family are shopping. As we have a wide range of eating habits this seldom is required. Workers may be asked to cook or assist in meal preparation.
