Description
🌿 Welcome to Our 12-Acre Haven in Beechworth!
Ciao! We’re Resi and Vince — a friendly couple living on a 12-acre lifestyle property just outside beautiful Beechworth, North East Victoria. Since moving here in 2016, we’ve planted hundreds of trees, built veggie gardens, started an orchard, and welcomed many Workawayers who’ve helped turn our little patch into something special.
🌻 Who We’re Looking For
We’re currently looking for a helper from 18–30 November 2025, and also happy to host anytime from 1 December onwards for anyone keen to get their hands dirty and enjoy country life.
If you love gardening, growing veggies, caring for animals, and being outdoors — you’ll fit right in!
🌱 What You’ll Be Helping With
Every day’s a little different, but tasks might include:
- Keeping the veggie patch and orchard thriving — planting, weeding, watering, harvesting
- Helping with goat and chicken care (feeding, cleaning pens, topping up water)
- Light property maintenance or DIY if that’s your thing
- We might also have one off projects, such as extending our chicken fence, some sewing and some preserving
We work around the weather — early mornings and later afternoons when it’s hot, with long lazy lunch breaks when the sun’s blazing!
🏡 What We Offer
We ask for around 21 hours of help per week in exchange for comfortable accommodation and good food (bedding and towels provided).
We mostly eat vegetarian meals or some of our own farm raised meat but are flexible — Resi used to be vegan and loves experimenting in the kitchen. If you enjoy cooking, even better!
🚲 Extras & Exploring
We’re about 6 km from town (a 20-minute bike ride — bikes available).
On your days off, explore Beechworth’s historic gold-mining streets, cycle tracks, wineries, breweries, and bushwalking trails. In winter, the alpine ski fields are about two hours away.
✨ A Little About Us
Resi (Italian, 52) is a permaculture enthusiast and veggie-growing and preserving addict. Vince (Australian, 45) loves mountain biking and home brewing, when he gets the time. We both enjoy good food, the outdoors, and a simple, sustainable life.
🚫 A Few Notes
Non-smokers only
Sorry, no pets
We don’t host helpers over Christmas and New Years Eve. (23 December to 4 January)
If you’re easygoing, love nature, and enjoy the satisfaction of hands-on work, come join us and be part of our next chapter! 🌾

What else ...
If you wish to visit North East Victoria and save some money on your great Aussie experience this is something worth considering. Beechworth has got plenty of cafes and hospitality places, including two breweries, to earn some extra much needed travelling funds, and at the right time of the year, there is plenty of harvest and vineyard work for you to also gain your visa days (check postcode is allowed by your WHV> 3747) Please note we can't assist with securing any work locally.

Wincy stayed with us for a week and we really appreciate her willingness to try and have a go at things. Her background isn't outdoorsey as in farming/horticulture, and therefore she needed support in embracing tasks, but once this was done, she was great at getting on with things.

Staying with Resi and Vince was great! It's so nice and easy to live with them :). They're friendly, talkative and above all, comprehensive. They have been workawayers as well and they know how it feels like. Thanks to this, they make sure you feel comfortable and at home, which is always nice when traveling and they don't ask for too much.… read more

Jeanne has been a pleasure to be around, so full of enthusiasm for new experiences and her trip in this new country! 'For sure' she will be having a great time in Australia and will be of great help around any other hosts places.
It has been a pleasure to meet you, you know where we are, come and visit - Bruce needs some more cuddling!
