  Description

  On our small-scale flower farm we live and work with a lot of love and pleasure. For many generations, our family has lived in this place. We; Sjaak (71) and Marianne (68) who live on the farm, love being outside and creating a nice place for ourselves, for family and our visitors. Daughters, Ingrid (43) and Nicole (41) come to help and work 5 days a week.
  We are working on our company, a flower picking garden, and we make sure that the yard is kept up to date. In the summer we are busy growing flowers and receiving customers. Sometimes it can be very busy. But it is also always cozy and friendly.
  In the winter we have it quieter. We live with the seasons. In winter we have a small dried flower shop where we sell our dried flowers and creations.
  Because we are very busy with our company in the summer, for example, the private garden or the house is sometimes forgotten.
  So we'd love to get some help with that.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Our farm is located in the south of the Netherlands in a very beautiful typical southern Dutch place. The yard is a large beautiful nature and flower garden, and is located next to a nature area. It is a beautiful area, and has cultural and historical value. We would like to tell you more about our living environment during your stay.
  Despite the fact that the yard is located in a quiet place, we live near a small village, and not far from some beautiful old cities such as s'Hertogenbosch and Breda.
  You can explore the area with a bike that you can borrow from us.

  Aide

  The help we need is the maintenance of the private flower front garden and vegetable garden. Think of sowing or planting flowers / vegetables, harvesting fruit or vegetables, removing weeds. But also tasks in and around the house or barn. Think of painting window frames, cleaning up / organizing space and removing the weeds at the sidewalk. We also have chickens that like to eat and that occasionally demand attention. We also have two sanitary facilities that need to be cleaned. Sometimes wood has to be pruned and sawn for the stove.
