Experience life in an award-winning Ecovillage in Witchcliffe, WA, Australia

Details

• 

  Description

  I live in an ecovillage in the southwest of Western Australia. This award-winning development is committed to the principles of sustainability and liveability and is a relatively new development. It is located in a very scenic part of Australia close to beautiful beaches and surrounded by forests. It is close to Margaret River, an area known for its food and wine production.
  
  There will have frequent visitors to the house including family members and friends. The village and my home will be a social place and you will be welcome to join in and enjoy the lifestyle on offer.
  
  I am looking for someone with basic carpentry or DIY skills to help build a chicken coop and other gardening projects.
