    Description

    We are a couple living in a lovely rural area 30 minutes from Brisbane CBD and ten minutes drive from the train. We have 15 acres and love to garden and grow our own vegies and fruit trees. We are regenerating part of our property with native plants. We still work fulltime. I am a feltmaker and textile artist with a great love of textiles and my husband is a builder of beautiful timber buildings.
    We love to cook, especially from our garden. We have a fabulous network of friends and we would love to share our lifestyle with you. We are near lovely creeks and rainforest and half an hour from beautiful Moreton Bay.

    Help

    We would love some help as the garden needs lots of work, mainly weeding and building up the soil and some planting...the structure is done, it just needs taming! I would also love some help organising my studio and someone to help me with some simple photoshop projects. Someone who loves living in the country, art , gardens and living organically/ sustainably would be perfect. Some computer skills with photos would be great.
