Program Details

This role is largely independent. I am focused on my own care and live with mobility challenges, so the expectation is that once you have been trained, you are able to take on physical work fully on your own and follow through without hands-on involvement from me.


Activities & Shift

I am looking for someone who:
- Feels at home in nature
- Is physically capable and comfortable with outdoor work
- Is self-sufficient with tools and equipment (I have most items, but being comfortable bringing and using your own tools is more than welcome — a chainsaw is a strong asset)
- Understands (or respects) seasonal cycles
- Is able to work independently and take initiative
- Is comfortable in a family environment, as my children are with me 50% of the time


Rules

Quiet living. Alcohol free environment.
