Welcome to our first WWOOFers

January 31st, 2010. Post by Wendy

Thanks to Matt and Kirsten over at Quinta das Abelhas lending us their beautiful Dodge truck conversion when our prospective caravan fell through, we’ve been able to welcome our first WWOOFers to the quinta. Helen and Pepe joined us 5 days ago from a long stay at Quinta das Abelhas and have already made a huge difference to the amount of work we’ve been able to get done.

Well mostly that’s down to Helen as Pepe isn’t too handy with a saw or a pair of secateurs, but she’s very good at being a guard dog. A very warm welcome to both!
