The existing Macadamia orchard is in the process of being replanted and converted to organic production. We are approaching a 'closed loop' farming system, recycling most wastes on farm, harvesting our own mulches, making composts and brewing compost teas. Currently offering 1 and 2 week intensive learning experiences, application required. Work includes tree planting, orchard work, beekeeping, seed raising, mulching, weeding, brush cutting, and vegetable harvesting. Accom for 2 in camper or BYO tent.
