    Getting to work in Wycliff

    May 26–Jun 5, 2024 in Canada ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C

    Our days with Steve and Ally at our second WWOOF were never dull- filled with hard work in the garden, games of Sorry and bocce balls (bowls for the British among you), live music and beer. Lots of beer.

    Jobs and activities included:
    - staining the railings of their deck
    - removing invasive species from the property
    - weeding the vegeteble beds
    - brushing the dogs
    - digging up soil and building a raised bed for a hugel mound
    - planting the year's veggies
    - cleaning windows, inside and out
    - baking bread and muffins
    - LOTS of washing up

    We were rewarded for this work with delicious meals, hikes, mountain bike rides and picnics in the wild flowers!

    The closest town- Kimberley has been voted the best small town in BC and is surrounded by beautiful mountains and populated by lovely, warm people. How lucky we are to spend 3 weeks as part of the community!
