Description
Workers wanted for July-Nov 21. House sitting only from Jan-March.
We are a small veggie/flower farm with 1 riding horse, 4 dogs, and 1 lovely cat. Have been welcoming international volunteers for 12+ years. Virginia was an Goat dairy farm entrepreneur, English/French as a foreign language professor for 10 years at the local university and loves to help people improve their language skills. Love sharing food, travel stories and a good day's work! If you solid work ethic, love nature and working outdoors with lovely animals and plants, this is the place for you!
Work includes gardening, weeding, walking dogs,groundskeeping, horse training, cleaning, firewood and fodder handling, fencing and various maintenence farm activities. Never 2 days alike! We are low tech and try to be as sustainable and productive as we can!
We love sharing and learning but we cannot accommodate vegans or those who are fearful of or allergic to large happy dogs and one boss cat! We live right on a gorgeous riverside trail and enjoy being in a vibrant historic, arts oriented community.
If you have horse riding/care experience /and or play the piano or guitar EXTRA!!!Points!!
2 wk min stay, no weekend arrivals please! -
