Description
We are a nature loving family, with an old farm. We are returning most of it back to nature as well as creating a food forest for future generations to enjoy. We have some little grandchildren living in the area who are our inspiration. This project needs help to create our dream and we can share our knowledge about our natural environment with helpers. We believe in organic practices, and regenerative principles for restoring the land. Come and enjoy the native wildlife and environment, as we regrow a forest.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We love sharing our love of nature and music. We can take people to local attractions and events during our time off. Bush walks and visiting the beach are all part of the attraction of South Gippsland. With Wilsons Promontory National Park nearby there is plenty to explore and see.
We have Greek connections in the family and a love of home cooked meal. Lots of sharing of good food with nearby family and friends.
We very much enjoy connecting with other parts of the world and discovering different stories from the wider world. As well as sharing stories of our own around the fire.
We have a mixed bag of skill to share, from environmental education, gardening advice, building skills and more.

What else ...
