    We have a house requiring a bit of painting, garden maintenance and outside work. No specific skills are required.
    We are a family of five who live close by. We love to have bbqs and get out and about.
    Located in Pongakawa Bay of Plenty on the farm and orchard. 5 minutes to Pukehina beach. 30 minutes to Mt Maunganui, 45 minutes to Whakatāne and Rotorua. It’s a great place to explore the region and get to know a kiwi family.
