Descrição
Hi! We're Paola and Andrew, and we live and work on a small private farm just outside the village of Beltra—about 20 minutes from Sligo town, nestled between the mountains and the wild Atlantic Ocean. We focus on growing organic vegetables for ourselves in our walled garden and polytunnel.
We’re looking for help with a variety of seasonal tasks, around our vegetable and flower garden, including:
- Weeding and soil prep
- Sowing and harvesting vegetables
- Wood gathering
- General garden and flower tasks
- Occasional help playing with our two young children (ages 5 and 3) in the afternoons (if you're up for it)
This is a hands-on, outdoorsy experience ideal for someone who enjoys helping with nature. In return, we offer nice accommodation, good food, great coffee, and a welcoming atmosphere. Please note that we grow vegetable for ourselves and it is not a commercial operation.
There's plenty of natural beauty nearby—beaches, hiking trails, and a strong local community.
We look forward to hearing from you!

The West of Ireland is rich in heritage (neolithic tombs) and music. We enjoy sharing what we know about the area we live. In addition we are close by the ocean, so you can go for a surf!

Depending on the time of the year: weeding, preparing soil and beds for planting, sowing, harvesting, collecting seaweed, wood collection and tasks in the flower garden.

Acomodação
We have space for two people and it will be in a separate house next to ours (it might happen that you will share the house but have your own room).
You’ll mainly cook your own meals, and we’ll share some together when time and work allow.
Algo mais...
There are many interesting and fun things to do around Sligo. Have a look at Strandhill for surfing, Carrowmore, Carrowkeel for neolithic tombs. There are also very nice walks/treks in the area (i.e. Knocknarea mountain).
