Description
We are a married couple, whose children no longer live at home, living on a lifestyle property where we farm cattle for their meat. Our property is a 20 minute drive from Whangarei City in a rural location with no public transport.
The meat produced on our property is for our own consumption.
Workaways would be assisting with chores associated with our homestead and the primary purpose of our registration is to offer accommodation and meet people along with getting a few jobs done.
We can offer a large double bedroom with its own bathroom and all meals in exchange for general farming work, gardening, housekeeping etc.
