    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.
