    Description

    We are a family of 5, living in the most beautiful part of Australia! We moved here a 2 years ago and bought our 2.5 acres with the intention of creating a permaculture haven, a communal space for people to learn, share and be happy. I have many projects still to go to regenerate and reforest the land, grow food and create more spaces for helpers to live. We have a stunning natural pool to relax in with a beautiful view and live on the tweed river which we use to canoe on and live 30 mins from stunning beaches and 5 mins to town.

    We are looking for a single person or couple who enjoy gardening, are happy to help in the kitchen with cooking and tidying up and love animals and we in turn would welcome you in to our home as part of our family.

    The living space is our beautiful glamping tent setup with two singles beds (or put together a king size), this will be your own space for you to relax in and a few meters away is the toilet and shower facility in the main house for you to use.

    In exchange you would be doing 4 hours helping a day during the week with weekends off. Helping would mainly be weeding, mowing, pruning and hopefully soon, lots of planting. You would also be helping in the kitchen with food preparation and tidying up afterward.

    You will arrive to a clean and tidy glamping tent and would expect you to clean it and the bathroom you use before you leave (or every fortnight if staying longer).

    We would love to hear from you soon!
    Tanja, Dave and the kids (and animals!)
