Program Details

I expect a couple of hours help a day, this year. I provide some food, bread , veg, pulses, but as I'm studying this year, im not committing to providing meals, for the usual 4 or 5 hours... so good to have other stuff you like doing. The area is fabulous to explore - loads of islands close by. Lots of walking, i have a kayak, there's fishing off the rocks etc As for jobs, some days it might be lifting oak seedlings or protecting seedlings within the woodland. Might be sawing logs, or helping build a cabin... or computer stuff... Could be clearing bracken or driving a quad towing a trailer, the veg garden or repairing the chicken run...

Activities & Shift

We'd discuss daily activities with the guests. But some skill with machinery, or ability to learn quickly would be a help.
