Help Wanted

I really need some help over here-- cleaning and gathering, feeding and watering. I'll pay in legal US tender per hour and would like to see integrity, dedication and commitment to follow through on what you say you will do.
I'd like to hope that this business will grow, that your responsibilities could grow with it and also pay. First clean, feed, water and help out, then train someone to clean, feed and water while you groom and exercise, record keeping and branch into marketing... and product inventory expansion, or into the gardening, wildcrafting and seed collection... so much to do... lots of opportunities to learn sustainable practices, soil building, animal husbandry, permaculture and sustainable design...
I really need a community. Hello! anybody out there?
I know you are-- you are just too busy with your own progress-- Maybe I'm too far behind, or maybe I'm too far ahead or just too marginal, or perhaps it's just fine and I will get the hired help I need and the community will evolve around me as I can allow it, wrap my mind around it, become more flexible in my approach, or just try to get it done on my own.

developing a spring

I have deeded access to a spring, across the road from my new property, but someone came and widened the road, dug a ditch too close to the spring and cut into it's flow, so it needs to be developed, and encased again with a spring house/box, and I know springs can be tempermental. I would really like some expert advisement on this, or some physical help ha ha!
