Help with our family farm of animals in the beautiful Charente!
The experience
My daughter & I have welcomed volunteers for over 12 years now & love meeting new people on their varied World journeys.
The work is physically demanding-mucking out horses, goats & sheep. General maintenance & groundwork. Some renovation & decorating.
Our property of 20 acres is 5 minutes walk from Confolens town & in beautiful countryside for exploring.
I am a fully qualified English teacher, willing to help out with language difficulties.
