    Description

    Hello, We are Michelle and Ross also Abby who is 15 yr and shes home on the weekends from school.

    We have 2 lifestyle blocks .
    Home block - we are renovating our home, planting trees , general gardening, weeding ect.
    Block 2 - a beautiful block with native trees and a river along the boundary. We need help clearing block 2, planting trees, moving stones/ rocks to create a lawn mowing area, also water blasting and painting the shed there.

    + also 100 olive trees that we pick in may/june.

    We do not need help with our businesses.

    We operate the Patuna Chasm walk, open Nov to April, this is certainly something you can do on your days off.
