  Descrição

  Hello hardworking people!
  
  The next period we offer volunteer work starts in the middle of May (best dates to work here is 15.5.-10.6)
  We need help to clean the forest; cut brances and carry them and small trunks of trees. On the yard there is raking leaves and reindeer feeding place, some garden works, maybe building too.
  
  We assume that you are in good physical condition and able to work 5 hours a day briskly. 5 days/week.
  
  We need some weeks helping hands also in autumn.
  
  If you are interested in northern nature, reindeer and working outdoors this place may be good for you.
  
  Mainly we need help in forest works in spring time: we have too many small pines to cut and prune the branches and carry all near the road. We don't expect you to work alone in the forest, we are working with you. You don't need earlier forest work experience. It is enough if you are used to work physically and you like it.
  We have a lot of fences because our reindeer are on the own land. It is big work to keep them in condition and that is done mostly in autumn.
  We have also many other tasks; wood chopping, painting , building, demolition of old constructions and cleaning, garden works...
  There is also some daily work with reindeer if you like working with them.
  
  We are a couple living in north Finland. Our home is 350 km to the north of Arctic Circle, 18 km from Inari village. There is 20 km long lake Muddus just to the north of our house. It is a peaceful, beautiful lake and also good fishing lake.
  We have a farm which is mostly forest, swamps and small lakes. There is two hectares field to make hay for our tame reindeer. Our reindeer gives us self-sufficiency in meat and they are also pets for us.
  We have also activities for the tourists. Travellers can visit our home if they are interested about authentic, everyday life and sami culture. But we haven't tourists everyday and we don't need help with the tourists.
