The experience

We are renovating a house in order to create a nice space for a living community in relation with our organic farm.
For this project, we look for people with some experience in construction jobs... but we would also love to find creative people (jackpot would be creative people with good experience in construction jobs !)
(This could become a paid position - but I can only get working permits for Europeans with professional skills)
