Description
Hello there! We are a family of 4 with a toddler and 9 years old daughter, sheep, chickens, cats and a dog in 3.2 acre farmland near Köyceğiz forest. We have been trying to fully transition from our city life back in Istanbul to country living here in Koycegiz with the goal of becoming self-sufficient. Even though we've been accumulating some experience in farming over the last 5 years, we still have a ways to go and might feel a little overwhelmed at times by the workload alone.
We have two Yörük tents in the farm, in which are preparing robotic workshops for kids at the moment.
We welcome anyone who could land us a hand with the following; farm work, animal care, diy projects, renovation, babysitting and tutoring our daughter.
We need a photographer as well for the moment.
