  Description

  Hi, I'm a solo father of three looking living in hinderland sunshine coast, Australia.
  
  My home is 15 minutes drive from Coolum Beach, in a peaceful semi rural area. Enjoy relaxing in the pool at anytime, and the views of the sugar cane fields.
  
  I live with my 17 year old who is finishing his last year of school, and my 19 year old who is in and out all the time. My eldest is studying away from home. My 17 year old lives alternate weeks between my home, and with his mum.
  
  The sunshine coast is home to some of the best surf beaches in the world, with whale watching, scuba diving, and amazing fishing opportunities.
  
  The hinterland has amazing bushwalking in rainforests, where you can swim under pristine waterfalls, rock climbing, mountain biking, and camping.
  
  The sunshine coast also boasts world class restaurants, and great cafes for enjoying brunch and coffee.
  
  I'm looking for help with the removal of invasive weeds from my native garden, and mulching of garden beds, pruning of my fruit trees.

  Help

  I'd like to get help in my garden, clearing invasive weeds from my native garden beds, and from around my fruit trees. Once the weeds are pulled, mulching the garden beds will complete the job.
