三人家族で。娘は2009年生まれです。小さな農家で、なにかと慌しく作業は農業にかんすることだけではありませんが、いろんな経験ができると思います。食事は野菜中心で動物性のものはほとんど食べません。なるべく自然環境のことを考えて、洗剤やシャンプーなどもふだんは使っていません。
住んでいる地域は都会からの移住者も多く、彼らからいろんな話しを聞く機会もあるかもしれません。
ウーファーさんからの連絡を待っています。。

I am glad to receive the massages from many wwoofer.
Being a small farm, We have many jobs like cooking, cleaning, baby sitting, house repair, etc. , besides the usual farm work.
We do request that you come with the intention of becoming a family member and not for the purpose of sight-seeing.
We wait for your contact!
WE ARE ACCEPTING WWOOFers
