Descrição
We are a family of four with 2 adult children who work full-time. We have a lovely hobby farm with 2 separate properties (Pleasant Villa and Hampstead), where we raise goats, chickens and turkeys, and have many vegetable gardens and fruit trees.
Keith and Irene are mid-70's and could use extra help with the gardens, canning, building projects and general upkeep of the house and property. Dani lives on a separate property, which is where you will be staying in a lovely newly renovated guest room, and she could use some help with property maintenance.
Ann is building a tiny home on our main property and could use help with the animals, fencing, and trail building around our property. We live in a rural area, with a public wharf 2 minutes from Dani's house and a hiking/biking trail right across the road. There is a marsh across from our home and tons of opportunities for wildlife watching.Tipos de ajuda e oportunidades de aprendizado

Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
Our family is very enmeshed in the Gagetown and Arcadia communities, we participate in the summer markets, Ann works with a local potter and Dani is the Executive Director of the local museum. We participate in a variety of activities in the community and will be happy to introduce you to people who share similar interests.
Irene, Dani and Ann are all very crafty, and will happily teach any of their craft skills. We are happy to teach any farm related skills, as well as cooking, baking and basic handyman skills. When we lived in Ontario we were very involved in the multi-cultural community, and love learning about different cultures and especially food! If we don't know a skill that you are interested in learning, we probable know someone with that skill!Ajuda
We would like help with some or all of the following: planting, weeding, mulching, turning compost, harvesting, canning/dehydrating/freezing, housekeeping, milking goats, walking the goats and dog, cutting and stacking firewood, clearing trails, building projects, yard maintenance, fencing, barn cleaning, moving chicken tractors, shoveling sand and dirt, picking up orders.
It looks like a lot, but the more hands, the lighter the load. There are likely other tasks that we could discuss as they come up. We are happy to teach people how to do all of these things, and if you know different methods, we are always happy to learn.Idiomas

Dani's house is a 10 minute drive from our farm. She has one newly renovated guest room with a queen bed, and an un-renovated guest room with a twin bed. You will share the newly renovated main bathroom and have access to the rest of the home, including washer and dryer.
There is plenty of space on both properties for a camper van or RV.
Dani works Tuesday-Saturday (leaving at 8 am) and can drop you off at the farm on the days you choose to work. If you have a valid drivers license you may be able to use the farm truck occasionally, although having your own transportation would be better.
You can eat breakfast at Dani's or at our place, and we will provide some lunches and dinners for you. You are welcome to cook at Dani's house, but absolutely can not have fish there as Dani is severely allergic. We have lots of experience with cooking for allergies and dietary preferences, so we can accommodate most diets. Most of our produce comes from our gardens or from local farms, and all of our meat is locally sourced. During the summer, our hens produce all of our eggs.Algo mais...
There's lots to do and see in the area. Fredericton and Saint John are an hour away, Sussex is an hour and a half, Moncton and St. Andrews are two hours. In two hours, you could be at several different beaches, enjoying the music festivals and other entertainments throughout the area, enjoying a drive along the Fundy Trail Parkway with its numerous scenic outlooks, or sampling delicious drinks and foods at lots of different breweries, pubs and restaurants. If nature is more your thing, you don't have to go far for canoeing, kayaking, hiking, or birdwatching. There are museums and shops, markets and fairs all waiting for you to explore. If you are a French speaker, you'll find plenty of people to converse with throughout the area and lots of French history to visit.
If you want to stay closer, there's still plenty to see and do. We have osprey that nest nearby, and Dani regularly sees bald eagles fishing. Both houses have decent wi-fi.
Unfortunately, we can't allow you to bring your pets, due to our pets and farm animals. But don't worry, all of our animals will insist on being petted and snuggled, especially the goats (even the big ones still think they are lap goats!).
We do ask that you keep all areas you use clean and tidy, and wash the bed linens once a week. We understand that other people's kitchens can be confusing, so just ask if you aren't certain where something is. We will make sure you understand how to do a task before we ask you to do it, and we are always happy to answer questions. We want you to enjoy your time with us!Mais alguns detalhes
