We are a professional couple who live on a picturesque small property (1 hectare)with trees and pasture. We have chickens, guinea fowl, geese, 2 dogs and a beehive and six sheep. We keep working on the garden, and it keeps getting better. We offer 25 hours per week in exchange for food and board. We are not registered for organic status but follow the principles. We eat healthy food ( we cook good food and enjoy eating and sharing it) and grow as much as we can. Looking for help to establish and maintain garden and basic property maintenance. Building skills would be great .
We are located not far from the Great Ocean Road and only 5 minutes from Warrnambool, a very convenient position.
We have pushbikes to ride and surfboards to share. We are both easy going people who enjoy conversation and connecting with others and we like everyone to be in a win/ win position.
We require a stay of at least two weeks, longer if mutually agreed. .
