Description
Hello! Emily, Reinhard and our son Jake live here in the Tamar Wine region together with our 2 dogs (Archer and Digga) on 40 acres, 30 minutes from Launceston.
Originally a bush block and are in the process of developing garden beds, an orchard and paddocks with the intention for livestock. Some projects yet to be completed: developing forest walking trails, animal enclosures and irrigation system.
We have lived all over Australia and love to travel both domestic and overseas. I work in administration, Reinhard is a paramedic and Jake is your typical 8 year old never sitting still for long.Types of help and learning opportunities
