-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Located in Whangarei, 2 hours north of Auckland, and a short drive from endless beaches, rivers, and waterfalls just 20 minutes away from Whangarei CBD and about an hour from the Bay of Islands.
3-acre landscaped lifestyle block - hobby farm with a small herd of Alpacas, friendly pet sheep, ducks, dogs and more, surrounded by native trees, fruit trees and landscaping shrubs.
Two streams run through the property and two large ponds with waterfalls, ducks, frogs, fish and other water birds.
The house is relatively new and you get a private bedroom and the guest's bathroom.
There is no bus service to the area, you will need a vehicle to get here and explore the area in your free time. Please do not apply if you do not have one.
Help is needed with animal care, landscaping, weeding, house cleaning, organic fertilizing, and other seasonal jobs.
Several options for work exchange depend on how busy we get and how much work is around.
The work exchange options start at 2 hours a day to a maximum of 4 hours.
You will have plenty of time off to explore the area, relax, and spend with the animals.
Please start your application by stating your favourite animal to show me that you read my profile.
Please provide links to references if you have no reviews on your profile.
