  Descripción

  An average Australian (middle class) family of 4, living on a small rural acreage with mostly gardening projects to be completed along with some household maintenance tasks that would benefit from another set of hands and positive energy.
  We live in a sub tropical area so weeding is a huge job and we are looking for people who are interested in permaculture, growing food and obtaining yields to satisfy the sense. we are interested in garden design, making compost and organic fertilisers and planting natives as a priority.
  Some jobs that we are considering for our Workawayers to assist with are
  - installing rain water tanks
  - knocking down an old chicken house
  - assisting with design and build of new chicken house
  - cleaning and repainting a concrete pool
  - preparing vegetable gardens
  - planting trees
  - harvesting fruits/vegetables
  - assisting with creative design for our fire pit area upgrade
  
  In return for 3- 5 hours a day assisting with the above and other tasks, we welcome you to stay in our small but comfortable granny flat (seperate from the main house) with private bathroom and kitchenette. You are invited to share meals with us and we encourage you to spend time exploring the local region. We are inviting Workawayers for 1 week at a time initially with a view to increase stays once we have settled into our role as hosts.
  
  If the information you have read today is resonating with you, please get in touch. Please take note that we live out of town and you will need your own vehicle as there is no public transport.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  We live in a beautiful part of Queensland with a spectacular natural landscape and environment to explore. We live a quintessential Australian lifestyle with a laid back approach to things. We have strong family values and community ethics but are personally not religious. We are accepting of others and believe that there is good in everyone. This being said, we will not tolerate violence and invite people who bring only good intentions to this experience.
  For some, our way of life may seem extremely relaxed and undisciplined but we hope that it will show you an alternative way of living.

  Depending on the skills and passions of our Workaway guests we will be looking at various garden projects such as building vegetable gardens, weeding, planting, pruning and such things. We are also planning on building a large chicken coop which is going to require some heavy lifting and physical activity along with some design.
  For those who have an artistic flair, we will encourage you to help us create some unique spaces throughout our garden and around our home.
  Overall, we hope to provide an opportunity to work alongside you and create spaces that will carry your footprint in our hearts and memories long after your departure. This will be a casual arrangement with minimal working hours and a great deal of opportunity to explore our region and have your own adventures.
