    Descrição

    Welcome travelers !

    We are located just south of Edmonton Alberta on a 80 acre farm and somewhat of a hobby center.

    We have Leonberger dogs and we usually have one or two litters a year. Our morning starts with feeding the dogs and cats as well as caring for puppies if we have any.

    We are currently building another house on our property and that is a big part of our day. Any help you can give us is greatly appreciated. You will learn a lot about construction. The next steps will include putting the tiles for the floor down, finishing the bathrooms, finishing the deck, finishing the outside walls and completing the basement.

    We do have a garden most every year with a green house that we take pride in to do some of our special items such as tomatoes, cucumbers and different vegetables.

    Some construction is usually done on the farm with changes in the home to accommodate more comfortable living area for the travelers. Also outdoor landscaping will be on our list of things to design and create.
    So as you see we have a wide variety of things to take part in.

    Time is made available for travelers to view our surrounding area to see what makes our area special as well.

    My wife and I are mainly the ones that are mostly involved in the work around our farm. My wife is an ultra sound tech, semi retired and works occasional day shifts away from home. I have been involved in construction most of my life and have also been involved in the teaching profession in my early years.

    We enjoy meeting people and we are happy to spend time with people from other countries to hear about their different styles of living.
    If this is something you might enjoy you will find us easy to get along with. Our meals are usually a gathering of everyone at which time we plan the day or share the days activities.

    We are contemplating giving an added gift of support for those who come and assist us with the spring work starting in March and through to May.
    This will reflect the type of assistance some individuals can offer, i.e. experience.

    We are not a business and we do not sell our farm produce off the acreage.

    We cannot accommodate people that smoke unfortunately.

    We look forward to meeting some of you in your travels.

    Cheers!
    Wally and Marlene
