  Description

  I am a 42 year old single mum of three girls, living in a 202 year old large cottage in a village location . I work for a charity from home on a helpline , and am on a health journey , currently doing a health science degree . We have horses , and a herd of Boer goats we rear for meat ( self sufficiency not a commercial business) . I try to eat ethically , and would rather rear our own animals well than buy from the supermarket , and buy predominantly organic . I have strong values I am trying to teach my children to make their own choices in life . I have previously suffered long covid and have found myself on this health journey and am now healthier than ever . My Children go to school a few yards from our doorstep and see their dad regularly . We love the outdoors and keep ducks and chickens for eggs , and home cook our food , bake bread , and don’t usually buy processed or packet food . We also grow a lot ourselves in the summer months .
  Looking for a way forward to carry on this way of self sustainability post divorce . We have three dogs as well so must be confident and easy going around them as one is a working breed dog ; who is excellent with all the kids . Can accept a workaway with a pet or even a horse !
