Description
Hi!
We are a family of four living on our farm in the Macedon Ranges (between the towns of Woodend & Kyneton), Victoria. We are moving towards farming regeneratively, with breeding Angus cows as our hobby (we work off farm as well).
Our family consists of Dan (41), Terrie (40), Archie (6) and Sidney (3). We have dogs, horses, guinea pigs etc etc - it is a fun and beautiful place to live. Our region is a farming, winery and scenic tourist destination only 1 hour from Melbourne.
Spring and Summer is a super busy time on our garden and farm, and we have many garden, farm and DIY projects on the go, in exchange for experiencing life in the beautiful Australian countryside.
We offer fabulous separate studio accommodation, and along with this, we offer full Board (groceries and cooking facilities) in return for 25 hours per week volunteering - very flexible on days!

The accommodation was a dream – a beautiful studio right next to the house with own bathroom, perfectly furnished, spotlessly clean, and we had it all to ourselves.
