My family and I would like to host a handy/DIYer individual or couple, in our Covington, Louisiana (USA) home, in exchange for 15 to 20 hours of work a week, helping make some home repairs and yardwork. The gig will last at least a month but could turn into a long-term arrangement for the right individual/individuals. This is being done in order to start a local free pantry and community garden on our property. I run a local mutual-aid page group, where people are free to ask for items or other help they may need, but can’t afford, and others frequently offer up items that group members could use. This is all done for free. I want to expand upon the group I created and reach even more people in need of help.
