  Descrição

  We need help with the development of our homestead. Our beautiful property is surrounded in nature and raw wilderness. It is located in southern Quebec, Canada. We are just over an hour drive outside of Montreal (my hometown).
  
  We are a family of 5. My husband and I. My 3 children ages 8, 5, and 2. We have a beautiful dog and a cat and live on a beautiful 30 acre land. We have access to a lovely river and plenty of wilderness.
  
  My husband works in construction, he is interested in sustainability and building projects. He has a passion for fitness, health, personal development and nutrition.
  
  I am a stay-at-home mom and yoga teacher (my husband and I co-created a yoga studio situated in Lachute, Quebec- ask us for the website
  I also studied massage therapy and I am an aspiring photographer. I am interested in wellness, parenting, home-birth, healing trauma, shadow work, community, music, singing, art and sustainability (less waste). I love tiny houses and eco-villages, and I have dreams to build one. I have a passion for plant-based foods and nutrition.
  
  We are looking for help in implementing our gardens, land maintenance and childcare.
  We are also looking for a cultural exchange opportunity and someone who can help us care, teach and play with our children. Our goal is to eventually grow into a sustainable (off-grid) homestead.
  
  We need help with..
  
  -Restoration and building projects in the home and on the land
  -Gardening
  -General land maintenance and improvement
  -Help around the house and with the children would be an additional bonus
  
  It would be a bonus for a couple to join us and help build our dream in becoming a sustainable homestead and foster a sense of community.
  
  We live in a very rural part of Quebec, but we are also only about an hour drive away from Montreal (from sights and attractions). We live about 20 minutes from the nearest town, Lachute, Quebec where you can find all essentials.
  
  We speak manly english at home, but Quebec in general is a predominately french province.
  
  ******
  In exchange for your energy and time...
  
  We will provide you with some interesting activities, accommodation in our RV, pizza on Friday nights and a community gathering, and perhaps singing and stories around the fire when no fire ban is in place. A weekly yoga class taught by me or access to practice yoga at our studio (included in your stay). We also have an awesome movie projector, and we are willing to set it up for a weekly movie night under the stars.
  
  Depending on the time of your stay and your interests some of the potential workshops and activities could include;
  -Bread making (sourdough and/or active yeast)
  -Canning tomatoes
  -Fermenting vegetables
  -Foraging for wild edibles
  -Harvesting medicinal plants
  -Soap making
  -Salve making
  -Candle making
  -Sewing projects
