Description
Our project is situated 7 km from Katherine township on the way to Nitmiluk National Park and Gorge (22 km away). We have 9 acres of extensive lawn and gardens that needs upkeep as well as general ground maintenance. Help would include: cleaning, cooking, gardening, watering, somple building help and fence maintenance.
Accommodation is varied, and this may change over the year depending on vacancies - small self contained living space (caravan or granny-flat), downstairs room of house, or your own accomodation in van, caravan, tent.
We have hosted helpers for many years and love the exchange and meeting new travellers.
Families are very welcome. -
