Description
We are located in Awakeri in the sunny Bay of Plenty. We are 12 minutes from Whakatane township & 20 minutes from beautiful Ohope beach. If you are an outdoorsy person, there are plenty of activities for you to enjoy & Rotorua & Tauranga are the closest cities 50 minutes away. As well as flowers we also have a dog, sheep & chickens at the farm.

Help
We would love some help on our 2 hectare property which is surrounded with native Manuka & Kanuka trees. We have extensive gardens including a number of different fruit trees & a productive vegetable garden. Im always in need of people who are keen to be outdoors & dont mind getting their hands dirty.
Anyone who has experience in the trades - handymen/women would be greatly valued as I'm always trying to encourage innovative & sustainable methods of irrigation utilising rainwater around the property. I require 4-5 hours a day for 2 week periods.
