Homestead heaven near Calgary, Canada

  Description

  Looking for someone to join us at our Homestead Heaven just 15 minutes drive from Calgary at the Foothills of the Canadian Rockies, surrounded by beauty and peace, ducks, chickens, Guinea Fowl, goats, piggies and nature. Looking for someone that would like to live in a beautiful and rustic hunter's cabin on our land next to the house, or in the house during the Winter. I'd love a bit of help with the chores during our gorgeous Summer and a bit of language exchange for the kids and household help in the Winter.
  
  Preference will be given to female Workaways as our two little girls love female company and the longer you are able to stay, the better :) We can usually accommodate stays as short as two weeks, but do prefer longer.
  
  Our Workaways described a typical Summer day as follows:
  ⁃ Food sorting for the animals
  ⁃ Give pigs and goats fresh water and change the duck’s water if dirty
  ⁃ Feed pigs, goats, ducks and chickens
  ⁃ Childcare/creative play/language expansion through the day or whenever needed (mum or dad will always be home and around to assist)
  ⁃ Basic household help (helping to clean the kitchen around shared meals, helping children clean up, laundry etc.)
  
  In Winter we still need to brave the cold to feed the animals and check that they are happy and well!
  
  We eat everything and cannot cater for allergies or special diets, but will always put health and wellness at the top of our ingredients list. We do not eat ready meals and generally cook from scratch. I will supply breakfast and lunch which will usually be good quality sausages, fresh laid eggs, bread, cheese and milk. I might cook or ask that you prepare these yourself and dinner will vary. If I am not cooking, I will make sure you have food!
  
  Farm work will always entail organisation, weeding, gardening, moving stuff around and tidying. None of the work is very tricky but we would ask that you do your best and a helpful and cheerful attitude is always, always welcome.
  
  We have fantastic outdoor meditation spaces and whilst Bragg Creek is nearby but I can only do a limited amount of fetching and carrying.
