  Descrição

  My name is Leo. I've been grateful to host Workaway cultural exchange helpers from all walks of life since 2012. We have helpers year round.
  
  The best way to get a feel for life here is to read the reviews of the many wonderful people that have helped us over the years. If you have any questions please feel to write and ask.
  
  We are a buffalo/bison ranch in the beautiful Blaeberry Valley, 15 minutes north of Golden BC, 1 hour from Lake Louise, 1.5 hours from Banff, 3 hours west of Calgary, Alberta.
  
  On the ranch you will find meadows, wetlands and forest with 360 degree mountain and glacier views. Enjoy the roaming buffalo, year round creeks and ponds with native fish and pristine frontage along the Blaeberry River, fed by the Mummery Glacier. We are surrounded by amazing vistas of the Canadian Rockies and the Purcell Mountains. Wildlife such as elk, moose, wolves, bears, puma, fox, osprey, bald eagles, black and grizzly bears and many other species of birds and native fish pass through this land.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  You will learn first hand what life is like living in Canada with buffalo. I'm the only one that can go in on foot in the pastures with the buffalo (bison) though. They stay wild and will charge strangers! I love it here. You will learn about the buffalo, and life here. If you read my reviews, you'll see the helpers experience, and how I appreciate your help with my personal chores very much!!

  Ajuda

  We are only asking for help with personal chores, not business chores. That includes helping care for our chickens, and rabbits, and my kitty, our vegetable garden, our firewood, sharing in cooking and shopping, shovelling snow etc. We try to eat as much as possible from the land.

  Acomodação

  In exchange for 5 hours of help a day, 5 days a week, there are 2 very nice cabins, private lofts above the workshop & kitchen and 2 campers, 24 ft and 16 ft until the weather gets too cold. We share the indoor bathroom and kitchen and there's an outhouse with a view. We have 3 bicycles to borrow, and trails to the river and a pond to swim in.
  I provide you with accommodation, and food. We often eat together and you are free to prepare your own meals and eat whenever you wish to. Helpers feel at home here.
