Description
We are a couple mid 50's who live in France. We have a small, old farm in the south of France, in the middle of the nature (parc national du Haut-Languedoc). We would like to renovate the farm. We also would like to renovate the outbuildings and make stables.
We have 3 rocky mountain horses and 3 dogs, chihuahuas.
It would be nice if someone with riding experience would come so that we could ride together.
We would love to make a vegetable garden so that we can grow our own vegetables.
Also plant nice flowers and make a nice garden around the farm.
We want to renovate our old farm, make a house in the large barn, make a rental room in the attick. Renovate the cellars. Create stables for the horses. So a lot of work to do.Types of help and learning opportunities
