The experience

I am looking for someone interested in growing food and learning about self sufficiency in a temperate climate...planting fruit trees and a vegetable garden. I have only been doing this a few years so am always willing to learn from volunteers as well as impart some knowledge to people completly new to this.

The food grown here is for people on the homestay, it is not sold to markets or done on a commercial basis. It's just a hobby.
