Description
Hi, we have 23 acres in Mangonui (beside the estuary) with some stock and lots of fruit trees and garden that we could use a couple of woofers to help with for a week or so.
We have a shed with a basic studio apartment and offer food and accommodation in exchange for half a days work per day stay.
Canoes and kayaks are available to use and you can catch a fish from the edge of the property 🙂
A day trip with get you to Cape Reinga.
Due to the nature of the work out is better that there are two people and a couple would work best as we only have a queen sized bed in the apartment.
