  Aide

  Right now we are looking for people to join the olive oil harvest from the beginning of october for about 2 weeks, but i might need help throughout the year. We've got 400 trees and the job can be physically challenging (no work if it rains). Usually i'd need help for 5 hours a day for 5 days a week, but i'm open to discuss other arrangements.
  
  As a Workaway host, I offer the local minimum wage for any hours worked.
