Wildlife and farm stay with our family in Wildwood, Canada

Infos

• 

  Description

  We are a family Farm/Ranch. We are also only a few hours from Jasper national park, a Canadian jewel.
  
  We raise chickens, turkeys, and ducks for personal consumption and cattle for market. Our main crop is hay which we feed to the cattle. There are also bee hives and we harvest a small amount of honey each year.
  
  The farm is over 900 acres and there is plenty of wildlife. Deer are near the main house daily and easily seen on the farm. Moose are seasonal and can be seen in many places on the farm. Also present but seen less frequently are cougar, wolf, bears, elk, lynx, and many small mammals and birds.
  
  We are looking for assistance around the home gardens, greenhouse, and pens in exchange for free room and board. You may be boarded in the main house or a cabin on the property. The yard has many amenities such as seasonal pool, gazebo, BBQ, as well as opportunities to fish and quad.
  
  We are also students of Spanish and would welcome opportunities to practice Spanish with guests.
  
  It is important to note that the farm is tobacco and drug free. No smoking and no drugs.
