My property is a lifestyle block ( horses, goats, dogs, birds, bees, barley fodder, etc ). The work here includes keeping the property in shape, care of all the animals, putting up shelters and painting , growing barley fodder , with the bees etc I am especially looking for someone with mechanical knowledge... to work on tools, mowers, chainsaw, motorbikes etc over winter.... getting them ready for the New Year. Stay in 30 foot/ 10 m. trailer. Wifi. Non-smoker(s) please....seriously! 6 day week; hours would be in the mornings , with an hour lunch break and back at work until around 2pm . The afternoons and evening free for your own activities . The town nearby is small and situated in SE Colorado surrounded by ranches and farming; excellent community library. The Rockies begin only 2 hours distant, with Colorado Springs 1 1/2 hour distant and New Mexico the same distance in the other direction. Stays are up to 3 weeks or thereabouts. You will bring a strong work ethic ( even on tasks that are new to you ), a flexible attitude (so much that can go wrong , will !!) and just be wanting more skills than you came with...natural horsemanship, tractor driving, tools, machinery etc. We'll help give you those... You will help with meals, clearing up, cleaning the house.... and cleaning up after yourself especially :) Thanks.

We are a family of three with a two year old son and have a large extended family in the local community so if you would like a taste of New Zealand family life we would love to have you. We live on a farm growing predominately wheat and maize but we also have some grazing livestock, chickens and a poodle. I run a small shop and design business and have way more ideas than time to complete them all. We are located in beautiful Opiki about 20km from Palmerston North(15-20 minutes). Opiki is less than 2 hours from Wellington and in close proximity to beaches, walk and cycle ways and many other of New Zealand's exciting recreational areas. We are happy to pick you up from Palmerston North if you don't have your own transport.

We hope to be able to combine these aspects of us and such make your stay as pleasant and memorable as possible. And useful for both parties. Together, we speak 7 European languages and understand some few more. We have during the years had several experiences with volunteers and are used to be clear about what we expect from you as well as showing patience to the one that stays and works here. We like very much to tell you about our favorite places and help you out for more personal advice. We prefer stays that are at least a month long or longer though you can always check if you could come for a shorter stay.
