Our first WWOOFer!

Well, when we signed up with the wwoof network we really didn’t expect to have a response, thinking that most travelers would want to stay in the more populated areas of BC, Quebec and Ontario. But we have had contact with a few interested people already and one wwoofer will arrive this week.

It is a totally new experience for us, so we are a bit nervous and anxious about the whole thing. We do not have room in our house for a guest so the wwoofer will have to stay in the non-modern cottage on the farm. It is comfortable, but there is no running water (there is electricity!). I have no idea what kind of accommodation other farms provide so we hope that the experience at our farm won’t be too different.

We also have a traveller who will be camping at the farm. He will do some odd jobs for us while he is here. He has been staying at Spirit Haven Retreat Centre in Craven where he painted and did other projects. It is great to have people like this who are interested in helping out while they are in the region!

So off to work a little early so I can finish cleaning and preparing the cottage for our wwoofer.
