This position is for the winter olive harvest only. Most days are spent outside, harvesting olives and helping around the trees.
Winter here is simple and practical. We work with the daylight and the weather, and after the work is done we stay close to home: fire on, animals around, quiet evenings on the finca.

We are a family of three living on a finca in northern Spain, located between Caspe and Maella in the province of Zaragoza, Aragon. In 2021, I purchased this finca, which includes a masia (farmhouse), driven by a belief in living a more self-sufficient and sustainable lifestyle.
I started this journey with some local help, but after three years (in 2024), I’ve realized I could use additional support. With no prior experience, transitioning to this way of life has been an adventure I don’t regret. However, it has also highlighted both my strengths and areas where I could use some help. That’s where you come in!
I’d greatly appreciate your assistance with a variety of tasks (see details below).
Thank you!
Depending on the weather, I expect you to work around 5 hours a day, 5 days a week.
We will discuss together what to focus on and at what time of day, depending on the conditions.
You’ll be part of our family and live under our roof, so I’d like us to share our meals together, when it fits our schedules.
Our house is small but hopefully cosy enough. You may have a private room, but sometimes you might need to share it or be flexible. I hope that’s okay with you.
We have four cats and two friendly large dogs, so please make sure you’re not allergic.
Smoking is not allowed in the house.
I’ve prepared a simple manual for life on the finca, which I’ll ask you to read upon arrival. If anything is unclear, feel free to ask questions — I’m open to suggestions. However, I do expect you to follow these guidelines. If not, I may need to shorten your stay.
