The Experience

We need help with all aspects of work required to keep a household afloat, the garden producing and the animals happy! From the middle of May into June we need someone who likes to look after our farm while we are on holiday. If you would like to do this, we would like you to come 1 week before we leave, so that you can learn what to do. You won't be completely on your own.
