Skilled Carpenters - Regenerate a Stone Ruin Kitchen

4.5
(9 reviews)9

The experience

Because the farm is also a conservation forest, i want to build the kitchen with local and native wood, ie cork or walnut. The main house is an old stone ruin and the kitchen is less than 15 SQM so is a minimalist project. The kitchen feeds the whole farm so is a very important part of the farm operation.

I welcome any applications from skilled carpenters including those travelling as a couple who can support other farm workplans.
