Part-time gardening, landscaping, etc. in exchange for room and board

Virginia, Charlottesville, 22901 Charlottesville USA
Aplica ya

We are an older, friendly couple offering room and board in exchange for part-time help in our garden and general property maintenance. The work is 55 hours per month, paid at a rate of $20 per hour ($1,100 per month). We provide meals and a room for the same amount (rent + food for $1,100 per month). Room and board is paid at the beginning of the month, and compensation for work is paid out weekly. Notice that the fee for room and food is exactly equal to earnings, and that over the course of a month you will net good meals and comfortable accomodation, but no cash. The work is part-time and we assume you would derive additional income from another job.

Our property is located 15 minutes west of Charlottesville, and public transportation is not available.

Gardening and landscaping experience is a plus, but not a requirement. Work may also include light property maintenance (such as painting), house cleaning, etc. Women are welcome to apply.

Accommodation includes a spacious, well-lit, well-furnished room with private bathroom. The neighbourhood offers beautiful walking in wooded areas with minimal traffic. Our food is healthy and largely plant-based, though we eat fish or meat two or three times a week. We have chickens, so there are always fresh and delicious eggs. During the growing season, we enjoy a wide variety of fresh vegetables.

Lifestyle requirements:

- No smoking

- No frequent alcohol or drug use

- No drama

- No weapons

If you are interested in this live-in position, please send us a few lines about yourself, the reasons you think this opportunity is right for you, and contact details. We will not respond unless you send us this short introduction.
