Description
We are Kerry and Ayesha, we manage an organic dairy farm near Gore.
We need some help tidying up around the sections.
There is a house provided with the basics.
Owaka is in the Catlins, a beautiful rugged coastal area with spectacular views, beautiful beaches, great walks, rainforests, dolphins, penguins, and sea lions.
We have four children between us aged 8, 9, 14 and 16, one who lives with us and the others live between us and their mother. We have a cute dog (Lucy), cat (Sky), three pigs (Henrietta, Trump, Kerry), and a group of chicks and chickens. We love having fun and going for bush walks, having a fire outside, and going to the beach. We love meeting new people, good food/drink, diving, and hanging out with mates.
We get the work done and then we have fun. We try to make our home a fun place to hangout.Types of help and learning opportunities
