Help me tame our 6 hectares of prairies and woodland
The experience
We moved here 2 years ago and want to bring this place back to life. A stay with us would be ideal for someone who likes being in the countryside, who is happy to do physical manual work outside, can use/learn how to use small machinery, clear woodland, prune trees, make logs, sow seeds, plant shrubs, and likes gardening in general.

Program Details
I need someone to help me landscape the land, plant trees, prepare flower beds, weed, sow, plant, clear the woodland, water crop, etc. Nothing difficult but must like manual outdoor tasks. Someone who is also happy to share the cooking with me so I don't spend my days preparing meals in the kitchen. Someone autonomous, efficient and good with his/her hands.
