    Description

    We are situated on a 1 acre permaculture property just 5km from the stunning hinterland town of Maleny. A boutique yoga studio on the property has 8 yoga, meditation and dance classes per week facilitated by various amazing teachers as well as a variety of weekend workshops, events and music gigs.

    The hinterland range with its stunning national parks, bush walks, creeks, waterfalls and swimming holes is all just a stone's throw away.

    The property has an abundant garden with many perennial plants, particularly leafy greens.

    The property is home to a small community of 2 like minded friends & a friendly dog called Lucy. We are interested in living consciously but believe in having fun while doing it!

    The double bedroom is a small private room in a shared house with a shared bathroom.

    Help needed with at the moment include several building, art and garden projects so we are particularly keen to meet helpers with some building, gardening and other creative skills. Also maintenance of existing food producing gardens, creation of new gardens, painting, shared cooking, cleaning.

    Come and discover the magic of Maleny!
