Description
I am a single mother with 2 twin boys who live on a beautiful farm, nestled beneath Mt. Tzouhalem in the Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island. There are beautiful gardens, chickens, cows, horses and amazing hiking trails in our backyard. Many events take place on the farm including the folk festival, concerts, meditation, yoga and 5- rhythm dance. Although it often feels like we are way off in the countryside, it is only a 7minute drive or 20minute bike ride to town. The Ocean, rivers and lake are all accessible,
As a family, we love to be outdoors gardening, wildcrafting and connecting with nature. I (Megan) am a Medical herbalist. I have 2 children - 4 year old twin boys named Eli and Ezra who are full of vital force and energy. We often have a friend staying at the farm to help out. As a household we are passionate about nature, health, spirituality and whole foods. We eat organically, and as local as possible, so healthy food will be available daily.
We will be needing help 4+ days of the week,. Everything over the 5hours a day (the work trade for accommodation and food) you will be paid for your work or we can organize trades for herbal apprenticeship, wildcrafting medicine making, etc. and more. We are looking for someone who has experience with children, is comfortable being alone with them for 8 hours, and can provide a connected way of exploring life with them in a safe and nourishing way.
We look forward to hearing from you :)
