The experience

You will be able to help take care of the vegetable garden, seedlings and plants, feed two cats, a dog and a mare, as well as follow its daily pasture rotation. There will also be house-cleaning tasks, occasional harvests, and weekly control of the brush/overgrowth. Ideal for those seeking tranquility, animals, and a simple rural experience. 🌿✨
