Description
Hello, My name is Jeannie, We are a Christian family living in Jacksonville fl. We have 9 acres on the river. We do have a highway near our property so it can be a bit loud. We are close to everything. Beaches are 15-20 min away. Downtown 15 minutes lots of things to do in Jacksonville. We have a mobile home across from me 2br/2bath. We offer either couple, friends or two females in one room and or two males in another room. I never put females and males that don’t know each other in the same room.
The mobile home has full electric, AC, heat, full kitchen. Internet spotty. You may have to walk to main house for internet.
We also offer a vintage camper near the river. Think camping. (rustic camper, outdoor shower, compost toilet and outdoor/indoor cooking.
We have horses, chickens, a cow, dogs, milking goats and sheep. I am just starting a food forest. We have lots of fruit trees and lorganic gardens. You can fish right off the dock. We have kayaks for you to use. We also make our own soap and love art projects. We welcome you to come along with us.
I would love to host someone that isHandy at building. A healthy type person/people. Someone that enjoys organic living. Gardening, Juicing, healthy cooking. (we eat all types of food) Will NOT except heavy drinkers or any drugs!
I would love help with the food forest, cleaning, building things such as decks, fence work, painting, raking leaves, shoveling horse poo, weeding beds, with us ...,We can teach you to milk a cow or goat:)
Everyone food preference is different. If I have extra I will alway offer you to eat with us. I do supply you with food for you to cook.
You can eat our chicken eggs, veggies in the garden mostly lettuce, beets,beens,tomatoes,cucumbers. greens, herbs, also I provide staples such as rices, beans, pasta and bread. I almost always have breakfast for you already cooked.
Currently I have paid people also working here building barns and such.
Can’t wait to meet some more amazing people!
Enjoy your travels:)
