Help with running small farm and planting a new garden - Ireland 🌿🐄
Location: Goleen, Ireland
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
We have a small beef farm, along with poultry, a new organic garden, and a small metal recycling business. On top of all that, our house is an ongoing restoration project, and due to my husband's ill health, we desperately need help in all aspects of the farm and garden. If you have a good level of English, that would be a real advantage, and perhaps you could be just the person we are looking for.
We are looking for volunteers to come and stay with us for a while, with a minimum of 2 weeks preferred. We have a double guest room available, as well as caravan accommodation, so there are options depending on what kind of space you prefer. Three meals a day are provided, plus unlimited tea and coffee, because let's be honest, that's what keeps everything running ☕
Our place is full of life. We have 5 large, lively dogs who love attention, 5 cats who do their own thing, poultry wandering about, and a small beef herd that needs daily care. There is never a dull moment, and the work is varied. You might find yourself feeding animals one hour, planting in the new garden the next, and sorting scrap metal after that. We are looking for someone fit, proactive, and happy to get stuck into whatever needs doing.
We are located in a stunning part of West Cork, really close to the sea. The landscape is breathtaking, with rolling green hills, rugged coastlines, and quiet country roads perfect for exploring. We do not have a TV, but we have WiFi in the house, Netflix for streaming, and a huge collection of DVDs for cosy nights in. There are also bicycles available for self-exploration, so you can cycle to the beach, visit nearby villages, or just enjoy the fresh Irish air 🚲
A good level of English is preferred, as communication is key to making this work smoothly.
We are a welcoming, down-to-earth family, and we genuinely appreciate any help we can get. It is not always easy here, but it is real, and we promise you will leave with stories to tell.
