Ferme vaches allaitantes en Bretagne: main-d’œuvre 4/5 heures par jour en échange du gîte et du couvert

Hello, my name is Marie, I am 48 years old, and I am taking over my parents’ farm with my 20-year-old son, after working in the audiovisual field for 30 years. We are a welcoming, cool and open-minded family. We raise a herd of Aubrac suckler cows. We need to feed the animals every day and do some work in the fields. You will stay in a private apartment, and if trust is there, we will listen to your needs and wishes.
