  • Description

    Description

    My partner Carol and I live at an intentional community that began in 1974 on 100 hectares of land adjacent to the Kahurangi National Park. We are located in Golden Bay, in the top of the South Island, which is a beautiful area with golden sand beaches and a vibrant community.. you will stay and work with us on our homestead area and there may also be work available for the community, on the farm and building maintenance.
