Description
Aloha! I am Jenny, 62, and I live on Maui, the second largest island in Hawaii. I just wrapped up four months work-trading all across New Zealand, am currently in Italy, and headed to Canada before the end of June. I am a career permaculture designer and consultant, and have worked all over the Hawaiian islands, the Pacific NW of the US, and Central America. My specialties are climate resilient agroforestry, neighborhood food, and watershed restoration and management.

I can offer design work on your rural, suburban or urban property/neighborhood/farm/orchard, and can work on whatever projects you have going on. I have extensive food-growing experience (and putting up the harvest), am a great vegetarian cook, can help with your kids and elders, I know how to use tools, I use computers and have great writing skills, can greet guests, ... I'm up for anything. I've empty-nested and I'm off on adventures! I like to play music, enjoy good company, have a good sense of humor, and I know how to keep to myself as well. I've been moving around a lot and am ideally looking for a Workaway for at least three weeks, and can also be available to house, pet, and take care of your garden while you're on vacation.

Look forward to meeting you!
Jenny

I loved staying with Jane and Spen! They are kind and welcoming people, they have a beautiful property, and the best separate cottage for workawayers to stay. I worked in the garden, helped with some house chores, we shared delicious dinners together, and I was invited to the beach, on gorgeous walks, and got to see a lot of the area.

It was great to have Jenny on site with her knowledge of permaculture etc and we learnt a lot about it for future reference esp related to hugel kulture and the use of biochar.
We were needing someone willing to do the hard yards that comes with garden work and at times Jennys level of expertise with her niche focus got in the way. In saying… read more

I had a great time staying with Sophie and the crew at this wee ecovillage. It's a beautiful spot, and not far from town. I was often able to jump in the car to get to town and explore while they ran errands or had things to do, and was also invited along to events and to destinations for nice walks and to the beach. Super nice people, and lots of… read more

Jenny is a one of a kind permaculture gem! We thoroughly enjoyed her time at our ecovillage and benefitted immensely from her expertise, experience and ideas. She is easy-going, motivated, hard-working and fantastic company. We highly recommend hosting her!

I had such a great time with Gerlinde! We gardened, worked in the greenhouse, and did a variety of things around the house. The valley is absolutely gorgeous and swimming in the creek every day was simply the best. I felt very welcome, we had good conversations about all kinds of things, went on long walks, and overall I really enjoyed my stay.… read more

Jenny is not your ordinary helper - she is a passionate gardener-permaculture designer with big aroha for nature and people. And she is willing to share her tremendous experience in these fields with you. In my humble garden, Jenny waved her magic wand and - the driveway had a make-over, the glass house a make-over, the veg beds were weeded and… read more

It was such a great learning experience to have such a knowledgeable permaculture gardener and teacher with us. I only wish I could have been on holiday at the time to spend more time with her in the garden. She got stuck in and did a huge tidy up of the garden and then produced a fabulous plan for the garden for me to set up over the next few… read more

I loved staying with Eleanor! She was a wonderful host and included me in all kinds of activities with friends and neighbors, cooked delicious meals, and was great fun to talk with. I had a whole floor of the house to myself so plenty of privacy including my own bathroom and kitchen. I mostly did gardening and design, but as always there are… read more

Jenny stayed here just two weeks, but in that short time she literally transformed my garden and revolutionised my concept of garden and gardening. She has so much knowledge to offer and to share. She’s extremely hardworking and gets a lot done. On top of that she’s good company, intelligent, interesting and can even entertain with her banjo and… read more
