Description
We are a 170 acre lifestyle farm located in the scenic Tallebudgera Valley, Gold Coast hinterland and only 25min from Burleigh beach.
We have horses, miniature cattle, miniature goats, chickens, bee hives and dogs. We also grow our veggies in our greenhouse and orchard.
We need assistance with animal husbandry and farm chores such as fencing, whipper snipping, weed control. Workaway’s with the right skill set can ride our horses and help with equine clinics.Types of help and learning opportunities

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You will experience wonderful farm life, learning about horses and animal care. Our veggie garden always needs some TLC and we are trying to rejuvenate our property with native flora and fauna.
Help
We are looking for positive, enthusiastic, reliable and self motivated people to join our farm family (couples welcome to apply) to work 3 hours per/day 5 days per/week.
We have 170 acres of beautiful land that has cows, mini goats, chickens and dogs and of course some Australian wildlife. We have Tallebudgera Creek that runs through our property for a dip in the waterhole on those hot Queensland summer days.
We are located about 25min drive to Burleigh beach however there is no public transport so own transport is a must.
Work duties are based on individual experience and if there is a trade ie: carpenter, machine operator etc, this is a bonus as we are always building something new like horse shelters and cross country jumps.
We need house keeping of the accomodation and common kitchen area, animal feeding/care, gardening, farm maintenance like fence painting/fixing. If you have equine experience our horses always need some exercise and for the right riding experience more than welcome to take the horses out on a trail ride.Languages spoken

We do not provide food however our work away are always welcome to some of our veggie patch and eggs if the girls are laying a lot.What else ...
Our property is 170 acres of lush farm land including rainforest, creeks, water holes. There is so much to do on the property such as bush walking, riding (subject to riding assessment as horses are not for beginner riders) or just relax under a fig tree reading a book. If you need a break from the farm we are only a 25min car ride to the beach. A drivers licence is essential as there is no public transport, so own transport is a must.
The property is only located 25min from Burleigh beach and other Gold Coast beaches and only 1hour to beautiful iconic Byron Bay.A little more information
