  Descrição

  We are a fun, hardworking family of 4. We enjoy camping, canoeing, skiing, climbing & mountain biking in our spare time and always have various projects on the go. Melissa is the "starter", a national-award-winning Master Photographer, author and tech entrepreneur...and Cam is the "finisher", holding a doctorate in history & a black belt in karate. Our kids are calm, good-natured and all around pretty awesome.
  
  We bought our own 6 acre property 14 years ago and since have done major renos on the house . We've done almost everything ourselves and built a suite, a tiny home, a bunk house and sauna on the property too. We make sourdough bread, our own kombucha, and manage an acre of vegetable and perennial gardens and have begun to develop our own food forest.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  Our piece of land is 5 minutes from downtown Nelson, or a 20 minute walk. You get the best of both worlds here...rural mountain homestead living - but you can easily pop into town for a live show, a coffee or go to the pub. We have built up our property over the years on a shoe-string budget, so happy to share how we've developed our construction and gardening skills over the years. Also always happy to share history & photography knowledge around a campfire!

  Ajuda

  Spring time we're prepping soil, planting seeds, weeding and cleaning up from fall/winter.
  
  Summer time we can use help with the daily harvest berries, zucchini, cucumbers and soon, blackberries, hazelnuts, apples. Canning, kombucha, sourdough are always a thing...or you can help cook and/or entertain our kids
  
  Building projects include: possible tree house for little kids and big kids, finishing touches on our glamping cabin, and other small garden infrastructure.
  
  We have 4 forested acres and would love help establishing more trails and always clearing deadfall.
