***Our current project that we need help with, is creating a 'Survivor style' camping area in our bush.***
There is also the opportunity to camp in the bush while working on this project. You can bring your own tent for this, or there is one that can be shared.
The forest here, is beautiful so well worth the experience. It is hard work to clear but a beautiful place to stay, so please be willing to work!
