Detalhes
Descrição
Originally from Scotland (Katherine) and Germany (Lawrence) we have lived in the Cowichan for many years. Children include 9-year-old Selina, lover of dramatic arts and people and grown-up children who come and go. Two other small families live on our property, as well as two cats and a dog. My husband and I both work full time - Lawrence is in management for a construction company, I am in administration at our local Waldorf school. (We have worked for many years in Camphill Communities in Europe and in Canada).
We would like to find help in maintaining our lovely rural property. Our values include conservation, care for the environment, organic practices, creating beauty and enjoying life with family and friends and the abundance our valley has to offer.
