Descrição
My husband and I built a eco friendly house in 2006 and have been developing the gardens since then. We have a large poly tunnel, an outdoor vegetable garden, fruit bushes, an orchard, flowers, wild areas, permaculture and structured hedges and many trees on our 1.5 acre site. It is a garden to be peaceful in, to have fun in, to move mindfully in and to wander and wonder at the beauty of nature in. Two cats, two goats and one sheep keep us entertained - the goats and sheep are “eco strimmers”! There are also hens and bees to keep us busy.
We also have 2 adult college going children in their early 20s who may be with us during part of your visit.
We are self sufficient for a lot of the year in vegetables and I love to cook so you can expect healthy, delicious meals during your stay.

Ajuda
Help is required with gardening - digging, planting, weeding and harvesting - all depending on the time of year. We have an ongoing need for trimming hedges, tidying of flower beds and occasional strimming. From time to time we have small DIY projects to be done about the garden - the ability to use small hand tools would come in handy.

Kaori helped a lot in the garden with weeding, rebuilding our compost heap, pruning, animal care and putting the veg beds to rest for the winter. It was great for me as Kaori was so experienced in the garden that she could work independently and everything she did… read more
I stayed total 4 weeks at Mary's house (3 weeks in Oct/Nov and then came back in Dec and stayed another week!). Mary and Adrian are very friendly, easy going, and fun people. They welcomed me warmly and made me feel at ease right away from the first day.
