We are an easy going couple with three children, two girls now living overseas and our lad William 17 who is still here with us for now at home. We became the owners of a beautiful old textile mill some 12 years back, sitting within 3 hectares of old park gardens. Sitting just outside the town of Labastide-Rouairoux, famous for its history in textiles. We love the mountains and rivers here, canoeing, swimming and sailing, & enjoy our lifestyle very much. Lara is just about to qualify as a nurse and Simon is a woodworker / furniture maker with a full workshop of machines too, whilst also having just gained an honours degree in forensic psychology with the Open University UK. We are ideally looking for a couple or individual who would enjoy working with us on the gardens and house, but also enjoys working on their own from time to time too, as sometimes we are both busy with our work etc. If you have an interest in learning some woodwork skills I, Simon, would be more than happy to he...

ENGLISH VERSION Here we live in an ancient school in the mountains of north Ardeche (1350m) ! My name is Etienne (35years old) and i live there since two years with Lena (27years old) who joined me two years ago and many people who join us throughout the year. Actually we are approximatly 7 to 10 people living here . it's a pretty remote place (closest supermarket is 30 min driving) but there is often people passing by (friends, neighbor, unkowns...). Most of the place is in a good state but there is still some work to do(paintings, coating, roof fixing, isolation...), so we would need a little help for the place to be able to welcome more people, and make our daily life better. The amout of work needed from helpers would be pretty low (around one or two hours a day), We want a little help but we want at first sharing our life with new people and have a good time. We dont have so much money and we try to repair the School with less euros as possible, with second use materials ...

We are a family of 5, four years ago we bought land in an abandoned village in the picturesque mountains of Galicia in Northern Spain to pursuit freedom and play loud music outdoors. Our family is a mix of dutch, french and latino cultures: you'll always find wine, cheese and arepas on our table. We speak english, spanish, french, portuguese, dutch and some german. As new residents are moving in (3 more households plus temporary visitors coming and going), we are looking for creative minds to build, restore and decorate our beautiful village. Jobs may include gardening, creating outdoors living spaces and playgrounds for the kids, rehabilitating hold houses, making firewood, developing off grid power systems. In exchange of 3-4h of work per day ( weekends off) we provide a private room and three meals per day. On your days off you're free to just chill, go hiking and explore the ruins around the village or just do whatever you feel like. Here you can learn to use all kind of power to...

Nous sommes Pierre-yves et Paul, deux hommes gay. Nous habitons dans le sud ouest de la France, dans le très joli département de la Dordogne. Nous sommes horticulteurs. Nous vivons avec nos deux chats dans notre vieille ferme construite il y a plus de 200 ans. C'est un endroit paisible de la campagne française, à proximité d'un tout petit village. Les commerces et les villes ne sont pas très loin. Notre village s'appel Verteillac, il est situé à proximité de Ribérac. Notre vie tourne principalement autour des travaux en extérieur et par tous les temps. Nous exploitons une pépinière à domicile, ce qui nous laisse peu de temps libre pour entretenir la maison et le jardin. Nos projets incluent donc le jardinage, le désherbage, le défrichage autour de la maison et parfois la maintenance des bâtiments. Les travaux peuvent varier selon la saison. C'est un réel plaisir pour nous de partager toutes ces taches avec des personnes motivées, énergiques et qui apprécies la sérénité de notre styl...

LAST-MINUTE UPDATE: Due to a cancellation we are looking for one or two helpers to work with us for the week Monday 17 August to Monday 24th August. We have some painting and gardening work to finish: maximum 4 hours per day, never at weekends. In exchange for 4 hours a day doing these tasks we shall put you up and feed you with good French cuisine. We can put helpers up in the attic apartment - an independent flat designed, constructed and decorated by helpers past. There is a lot to see in Toulouse and we`re only a few minutes from the nearest metro station into town ... and the brand-new téléphérique to nowhere. Helpers often find that a week in a big French city is welcome relief after weeks out in the sticks with no night-life, cafés or young people around. Toulouse has all this ... and more! ...

Please read all of our information before contacting us. We require a one month minimum stay, and currently we have space beginning July 1st. Our homestead is remote and therefore not for everyone.

Ecologically sustainable land management and forestry project just 5 miles from Totnes. We focus on woodland-based farm work, improving the land for future wildlife, and leaving a legacy of better landscape infrastructure. We do not keep any farm animals of our own, though neighbours graze livestock here and cut hay/haylage. Our primary production focuses on sustainable logs, timber, and reclaimed Victorian slate for stone walling, all managed under a Wildlife Trust & Forestry Commission ecological management plan. We are seeking volunteers to assist with land projects, alongside some long-term volunteers. People are welcome to bring their own caravans, van-lifers, yurts, live-in vehicles and small buses. Long term there are chances to get educational certification (eg welding/ chainsaws, 4x4 driving) and help with office administration (PA/bookkeeping), big tree work, building, or mechanics. THE WORK & CURRENT PROJECTS Our work is varied & seasonal. Current and ongoing projects inc...

Hello! Would you like to stay in a villa by the sea? I offer free accommodation in exchange for a few hours of help. The villa is located 15 minutes from Ajaccio. It has bedrooms with private bathrooms, a gym with a spa, a jacuzzi in a landscaped garden, large terraces and a swimming pool. The beaches are just a short walk away, with small coves and natural pools directly opposite the villa. The panoramic sea views and sunsets make the setting particularly idyllic. A transfer from the airport or port can be arranged depending on availability, during the daytime only (details available on request). The minimum stay is one week. Simply indicate your available dates in your request. The help mainly involves cleaning, cooking, garden maintenance or small painting jobs. It represents around four hours per day, with the option of grouping the work into one full day every other day. The rest of the time can be spent enjoying Lava’s large beach, the coves in front of the villa, the hiking trai...

If you like nature, tranquility and an easy going host .... then this is the place to be. I can only really be around people who don't want drama in their lives, who are easy going and open to good conversation. I can't put up with drunks, people who believe that covid was real or think that a woman can have a penis! If you fall into this catagory then I am sorry yet this is not the place for you. I would also like to have a chat on Whatsapp with you before any commitment to you coming here. I have had helpers here before when I built the house, now I need help with a few building projects, so a professional builder who is easy going and who may possibly be looking for somewhere to live on a long term basis would be wonderful. If you are not a builder there is plenty of other work in the garden, consisting of strimming, mulching, caring ... IE slightly physical yet not too heavy as work goes. Some form of transport will be needed or you will not be able to travel anywhere ! I look ...

2 Small farms turned into the one near the West Coast of Clare. We keep lots of farm animals like cattle, horses, donkeys and sheep. We produce a wide range of vegetables for ourselves and some for selling. We have two children, went to primary Steiner/ Waldorf school; Frank (25) and Fina(21) and they love having volunteers around the place. Fina is doing equine studies and Frank studies horticulture and loves travelling. We hope you have the ability to adapt to our for most of you different and simple life-style and enjoy farmwork with irregular hours at times, and you will get a true sense of farming life-style! It is important to realise beforehand that you are a volunteer who gets the opportunity to join into our family home/life so please do not compare with a regular paid job.. Most important is that you are happy and enjoy your stay with us... We offer healthy food, wonderful sunsets and rainbows, some Irish traditional music, and the possibility to learn more about old style f...

We are in the process of renovating an old house in the Pyrenees. There is only decorating to do such as stripping paint of walls and woodwork, and repainting. There might be the occasional carpentry to do also, nothing too complicated. We need help 5 hours per day, five days per week. Weeding, pruning trees, making paths. We are looking for help from two strong and healthy individuals to assist with a house redecorating project and gardening, trimming trees, path making etc. This requires physical strength and stamina. PLEASE NOTE WELL: we absolutely cannot host anyone with any pre-existing health issues, physical or mental (we are not medically trained to manage such conditions), such as hay fever, any other allergies, sensitivities or intolerances. We live in a small village with some shops and a climbing centre and a river just opposite the house. We have a quite a size garden where we grow vegetables, fruit bushes and trees.

Gardening, housework, light mechanical, a bit of hunting, all sorts of things, never boring.A wicked sense of humor is a good asset to bring. handy to Routeburn and Greenstone tracks. You will need your own internet connection as I don't supply wifi. A bit isolated, not for the precious, no trophy hunters!! Please don't apply unless you intend to come for a minimum stay of two weeks. One person only. We do not get involved with internships or visa applications. Vegetarians and vegans would probably not be comfortable as we eat meat daily. I am off grid and totally dependent on solar, so you have to charge your devices during the day and definitely no hairdryers! Accommodation is a house bus in warmer weather or a room in the house in winter, not shared usually. Lastly I also play the guitar (badly) and sing (worse) but it's all about smile not style :-) , please don't come if you have a heavy cold or flu, I'm involved with the elderly. Cheers Al

We are an easy going couple with three children, two girls now living overseas and our lad William 17 who is still here with us for now at home. We became the owners of a beautiful old textile mill some 12 years back, sitting within 3 hectares of old park gardens. Sitting just outside the town of Labastide-Rouairoux, famous for its history in textiles. We love the mountains and rivers here, canoeing, swimming and sailing, & enjoy our lifestyle very much. Lara is just about to qualify as a nurse and Simon is a woodworker / furniture maker with a full workshop of machines too, whilst also having just gained an honours degree in forensic psychology with the Open University UK. We are ideally looking for a couple or individual who would enjoy working with us on the gardens and house, but also enjoys working on their own from time to time too, as sometimes we are both busy with our work etc. If you have an interest in learning some woodwork skills I, Simon, would be more than happy to he...

ENGLISH VERSION Here we live in an ancient school in the mountains of north Ardeche (1350m) ! My name is Etienne (35years old) and i live there since two years with Lena (27years old) who joined me two years ago and many people who join us throughout the year. Actually we are approximatly 7 to 10 people living here . it's a pretty remote place (closest supermarket is 30 min driving) but there is often people passing by (friends, neighbor, unkowns...). Most of the place is in a good state but there is still some work to do(paintings, coating, roof fixing, isolation...), so we would need a little help for the place to be able to welcome more people, and make our daily life better. The amout of work needed from helpers would be pretty low (around one or two hours a day), We want a little help but we want at first sharing our life with new people and have a good time. We dont have so much money and we try to repair the School with less euros as possible, with second use materials ...

We are a family of 5, four years ago we bought land in an abandoned village in the picturesque mountains of Galicia in Northern Spain to pursuit freedom and play loud music outdoors. Our family is a mix of dutch, french and latino cultures: you'll always find wine, cheese and arepas on our table. We speak english, spanish, french, portuguese, dutch and some german. As new residents are moving in (3 more households plus temporary visitors coming and going), we are looking for creative minds to build, restore and decorate our beautiful village. Jobs may include gardening, creating outdoors living spaces and playgrounds for the kids, rehabilitating hold houses, making firewood, developing off grid power systems. In exchange of 3-4h of work per day ( weekends off) we provide a private room and three meals per day. On your days off you're free to just chill, go hiking and explore the ruins around the village or just do whatever you feel like. Here you can learn to use all kind of power to...

Nous sommes Pierre-yves et Paul, deux hommes gay. Nous habitons dans le sud ouest de la France, dans le très joli département de la Dordogne. Nous sommes horticulteurs. Nous vivons avec nos deux chats dans notre vieille ferme construite il y a plus de 200 ans. C'est un endroit paisible de la campagne française, à proximité d'un tout petit village. Les commerces et les villes ne sont pas très loin. Notre village s'appel Verteillac, il est situé à proximité de Ribérac. Notre vie tourne principalement autour des travaux en extérieur et par tous les temps. Nous exploitons une pépinière à domicile, ce qui nous laisse peu de temps libre pour entretenir la maison et le jardin. Nos projets incluent donc le jardinage, le désherbage, le défrichage autour de la maison et parfois la maintenance des bâtiments. Les travaux peuvent varier selon la saison. C'est un réel plaisir pour nous de partager toutes ces taches avec des personnes motivées, énergiques et qui apprécies la sérénité de notre styl...

This is a traditional family-owned farm which, after years of abandonment, is currently being re-imagined as a sustainable and environmentally-conscious community. Located just 3km from the beach, where the Pampa plain meets the rugged coastline of the Argentinian Atlantic. We are passionate about agriculture, surfing, music, travel, nature and the environment, who want to create a communal space where people from around the world can come to learn about sustainable living and ecological ideals; share delicious organic food from the gardens; surf; tell stories; share knowledge, ideas, culture and language; learn about farming, the environment, or just relax and enjoy the farm and surrounds. The project is in its early stages and we are looking for energetic and responsible individuals wanting to experience and contribute to rural life and communal living close to nature.

Simon and Sylvie live in a big house in the suburbs of Toulouse, with a small garden. Sylvie has just retired from a lifetime teaching Philosophy and Simon is a retired law lecturer. LAST-MINUTE UPDATE: Due to a cancellation we are looking for one or two helpers to work with us for the week Monday 17 August to Monday 24th August. We have some painting and gardening work to finish: maximum 4 hours per day, never at weekends. In exchange for 4 hours a day doing these tasks we shall put you up and feed you with good French cuisine. We can put helpers up in the attic apartment - an independent flat designed, constructed and decorated by helpers past. There is a lot to see in Toulouse and we`re only a few minutes from the nearest metro station into town ... and the brand-new téléphérique to nowhere. Helpers often find that a week in a big French city is welcome relief after weeks out in the sticks with no night-life, cafés or young people around. Toulouse has all this ... and more! ...

Nestled in the coastal range of Mendocino County, California (about 45 minutes Northwest of Ukiah where the weather is more pleasant) we are establishing a small farm and wildlife sanctuary.  Based on principles of sustainability & permaculture our expanding ridge top garden and orchards consist of a variety of fruits, veggies, herbs and flowers.  Aside from garden and orchard tasks additional projects may include gathering seaweed and other native wild foods, cooking, canning, fermenting foods, making herbal preparations, habitat restoration, brush and trail clearing, small scale green building and learning how to build and maintain an off-grid infrastructure and solar system. Please read all of our information before contacting us. We require a one month minimum stay, and currently we have space beginning July 1st. Our homestead is remote and therefore not for everyone. We prefer those who want to unplug and enjoy the serenity of a mountain forest. If you are open minded, love t...

It has bedrooms with private bathrooms, a gym with a spa, a jacuzzi in a landscaped garden, large terraces and a swimming pool.

If you like nature, tranquility and an easy going host .... then this is the place to be. I can only really be around people who don't want drama in their lives, who are easy going and open to good conversation. I can't put up with drunks, people who believe that covid was real or think that a woman can have a penis! If you fall into this catagory then I am sorry yet this is not the place for you. I would also like to have a chat on Whatsapp with you before any commitment to you coming here. I have had helpers here before when I built the house, now I need help with a few building projects, so a professional builder who is easy going and who may possibly be looking for somewhere to live on a long term basis would be wonderful. If you are not a builder there is plenty of other work in the garden, consisting of strimming, mulching, caring ... IE slightly physical yet not too heavy as work goes. Some form of transport will be needed or you will not be able to travel anywhere ! I look ...

Depending on the season, we are looking for helpers with one or more of the following skills: 1. gardening (pruning, digging, tidying up etc.) as well as wood clearing and logging; 2. affinity with cooking and making domain products (e.g. confitures, chutneys) from the fruit and walnuts we have; 3. preparing the gîtes for new guests; 4.

We love sharing who we are and what we have to inspire others to thrive on the land while working with and amongst nature. We want to show you how to be comfortable in nature; to re-learn how to be a part of nature rather than apart from nature. We have two rooms exclusively for HelpX guests; one room with a double bed, the other with a bunk bed. You have your own bathroom and toilet.

I can't see the world, but the world can come see me. First and foremost, I want to thank all the helpers who came from United Kingdom-England, France, Belgium, Italy, China, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. Welcome Helpers. I live in the Appalachian Mountains of West Virginia. Peaceful Hollow is quite with no neighbors in sight. There are no city lights, and you can see every star on a clear night! Pleaseful Hollow consists of: my cabin,/workshop with a private guestroom with private entrance on the second floor, and a very small guest cabin. My daughter and family moved here much later and have their own home. There is a lot you can be involved in, knowledge to share, friendships to build, and opportunities for growth. Below are routines and some projects. I would love to involve you! - Caring for honey bees, chickens, cats, dogs, one registered pure American Mulefoot boar pig, one gilt pig berkshire-tamworth with spots.. i am a fourth-generation beekeeper and has much ...

2 Small farms turned into the one near the West Coast of Clare. We keep lots of farm animals like cattle, horses, donkeys and sheep. We produce a wide range of vegetables for ourselves and some for selling. We have two children, went to primary Steiner/ Waldorf school; Frank (25) and Fina(21) and they love having volunteers around the place. Fina is doing equine studies and Frank studies horticulture and loves travelling. We hope you have the ability to adapt to our for most of you different and simple life-style and enjoy farmwork with irregular hours at times, and you will get a true sense of farming life-style! It is important to realise beforehand that you are a volunteer who gets the opportunity to join into our family home/life so please do not compare with a regular paid job.. Most important is that you are happy and enjoy your stay with us... We offer healthy food, wonderful sunsets and rainbows, some Irish traditional music, and the possibility to learn more about old style f...

We are in the process of renovating an old house in the Pyrenees. There is only decorating to do such as stripping paint of walls and woodwork, and repainting. There might be the occasional carpentry to do also, nothing too complicated. We need help 5 hours per day, five days per week. Weeding, pruning trees, making paths. We are looking for help from two strong and healthy individuals to assist with a house redecorating project and gardening, trimming trees, path making etc. This requires physical strength and stamina. PLEASE NOTE WELL: we absolutely cannot host anyone with any pre-existing health issues, physical or mental (we are not medically trained to manage such conditions), such as hay fever, any other allergies, sensitivities or intolerances. We live in a small village with some shops and a climbing centre and a river just opposite the house. We have a quite a size garden where we grow vegetables, fruit bushes and trees. Here, we have spectacular mountain views on our do...

Gardening, housework, light mechanical, a bit of hunting, all sorts of things, never boring.A wicked sense of humor is a good asset to bring. handy to Routeburn and Greenstone tracks. You will need your own internet connection as I don't supply wifi. A bit isolated, not for the precious, no trophy hunters!! Please don't apply unless you intend to come for a minimum stay of two weeks. One person only. We do not get involved with internships or visa applications. Vegetarians and vegans would probably not be comfortable as we eat meat daily. I am off grid and totally dependent on solar, so you have to charge your devices during the day and definitely no hairdryers! Accommodation is a house bus in warmer weather or a room in the house in winter, not shared usually. Lastly I also play the guitar (badly) and sing (worse) but it's all about smile not style :-) , please don't come if you have a heavy cold or flu, I'm involved with the elderly. Cheers Al
