  Description

  I am Turid , 60 years, former gardener and florist, with a lot of creative ideas in mind. I live in a little house in a big garden , surrounded by forest and fields, not fare from the sea.
  
  Because of a chronic disease, I do not longer manage the gardenwork alone anymore, so a little help would be much welcome, and of course the work is also so much easier and funny when you have some company.
  
  
  I need help for about a week , preferably from late April until the middel of May.
