| Description | We are (almost) self-sufficient in vegetables and have been growing produce for our own family (with a small excess for sale outside our house) for the past 14 years. We also have fruit trees and established shrub and herbaceous flower borders. We work hard ourselves, but are quite easy-going and don't require long hours working - our WWOOFers normally work 5-6 hours a day, with plenty of free time, and around one full day off per week ... all of which is open to negotiation!
We like having new people here, have become friends with many of our WWOOFers and keep in touch regularly.
We like our volunteers to be 'self-starters' and not require too much attention or looking-after from us.
Accommodation is normally in our tree-house, with wonderful views of the sea. We are located in beautiful West Dorset, southern England, with views of the countryside and sea (15 minutes walk away - our WWOOFers often go to the beach in the afternoon). We are an artist and web designer with twin boys (aged 14) who were entirely home-educated until very recently. We are trained and experienced in the use of natural medicines and therapies. See websites for futher information. We particularly need help with carpentry (woodwork), electrical work and chopping firewood. |
