The experience

The job consists of

Outside gardening / Digging / transplanting / building
Indoor Gardening / propagation / maintenance / sprouting

During low season there are very little to no guests here.
So you will be mainly doing some cleaning and projects (like painting, repairing and more).

During the high season reception and cleaning duties are of primary focus and gardening becomes more of maintenance task.
