Share Duty for Two Gardenersherb beds

Seeking two people who will share the work (not necessarily at the same time) of planting new culinary herbs in 3 beds when they come in (and weed all the beds as needed for the June to October season (probably once a month).  Preparation of beds for planting includes turning the soil, removing obvious weeds, adding mulch by wheelbarrow, watering at time of planting.

Weeding needed twice a month.
Scheduling flexible.
