Internship and learning
Kia Ora and welcome to our eco project.
We are establishing this place at Waipu Caves - a supportive refuge for self discovery and healing and caring through a deep connection with nature and horses..
Set amongst the majestic limestone formations and sacred underground passageways of Te Ana Waipu (Waipu Caves), the property rests on 14 hectares of native bush and pasture. We are completely off grid and have our own spring water supply. The huge limestone cave system covers some four square kilometres and is home to millions of glow worms adorning the cavernous ceilings and freshwater koura in the chilly Pools below. There are swimming holes surrounded by native trees in the river a short walk away. The beautiful beaches of Bream Bay are just 15 minutes away!
We are making a vision a reality - and we need your help.

This place is amazing,
we learnt so many things.
The only regret is to cannot stay more
Thank you for everything
Patricia came to stay at a time when I had to be off the property and she managed everything from feeding horses, ducks and chickens to cleaning in and around the house. I could not have wished for more!
The tasks are varied. Some of them are gardening, cutting trees, making paths for their 4 horses, building a roof,… read more
