  Beschreibung

  I live on my 5 acre semi-rural property with my husband, and my family of two adult kids and two grandchildren. The property is bounded by the beautiful Waipapa River with a number of swimming holes, and separate areas where we feed a bunch of eels. I love gardening; have a large vege garden, a berry house, hot house, orchard and chooks. I try to grow as much of our food as possible. I also love a variety of crafts such as sewing, crochet, knitting, etc. Eight years ago I founded the Resilient Communities Trust for the Far North and am involved in a number of projects that help the resilience of the district. I have a post grad qualification in Sustainable Exchange (AKA Alternative Economics) and am passionate about that subject. I am involved in Transition Towns, and our local crop-swap we have each fortnight. I used to be a host a number of years ago, hosting people from all around the world, just loved it and have retained many friendships with the people who came to stay. I love cooking, so you will be well fed.

  Arbeit

  I am not short of things one could help with, but will tailor the projects to those who come to stay. There is always gardening and general property tasks to do, we are in the process of upgrading our house so have plenty of stuff like painting the house, and would love to have someone who is skilled in Wordpress websites to help me upgrade our Resilient Communities website.

  Was noch ...

  We are close to Waipapa (3kms) and Kerikeri. There are lots of lovely walks locally, and not far from the coast. We have two bicycles available although they may need a small amount of maintenance (oiling, tyre pumped up etc). Even not leaving the property there is plenty to do, especially if you like the water.
