Beschreibung
We're on Banks Peninsula just outside Christchurch, and we're looking for someone or a couple to help us on our lifestyle block. We are Jon and Eunice, originally from the UK, and our 10 year old Joseph. We are 5mins walk to our local, quiet beach (Purau) and 40mins from Christchurch either driving or ferry/bus.
We've got 2 hectares where we have sheep, chickens, fruit trees and gardens, with beautiful views and birdsong.
Right now (start of September) we are entering my favourite time of year, Spring! We had our first lambs yesterday (3rd September) and our other 7 ewes will have their lambs in the next few weeks.
If all goes to plan, they will largely look after themselves, but if there's a problem, we will be bottle feeding 4-5 times a day.
Spring is also the time when the weeds start going mental, so it's a busy time of year. There will be hedges to trim, veggies to grow, chickens to feed, and lambs to hug.
The accommodation is a separate independent cottage with a double bedroom, lounge with TV, bathroom, and super fast Internet.
For 4 hours work per day, 5 days per week, we will provide food and accommodation. We can easily cater for vegetarians, vegans, gluten free or any other requirements.
I will be mostly working with any woofers, not just ordering people around. I find it's best to work as a team.
Any questions, please ask.
We're looking guests to hearing from you. -

Arbeit
We would love to have some help clearing some trees and bushes which have gone a bit wild in places. We have also had some big pine trees dropped which need splitting with our new log splitter. There could be some other general gardening, and maybe occasional childcare if that suits.

Was noch ...
There are lots of amazing beaches and local walks here. It's amazing to live 40mins from the biggest city on the South Island but be in such a rural area.
Having a transport is a good idea, although there is a ferry & bus into Christchurch, there is a 5min drive to get to the terminal. -
