    Hello, Wonderful Workawayers!

    🌞 We're looking for people to join us in preparing for an upcoming event at the Palace. If you’re up for rolling up your sleeves to help with ground prep, décor and art installations, nurturing our veggie gardens, and general event setup, we'd love to hear from you!

    🌱 Our space sits on 5 acres of beautiful land with a thriving orchard, lush vegetable gardens, and a saltwater lake perfect for a refreshing swim or a peaceful canoe ride. We welcome all skill levels and are happy to share our knowledge with those willing to learn. For Workawayers with practical experience, there are plenty of ways to put your skills to good use: garden work, fruit and veggie preserving, household tasks, and maintaining the gardens.

    🛠️ If you have more specialised skills, there’s also room to jump into renovation projects, landscaping, permaculture, or light construction work around the property.

    ~ A little history ~
    Thirty years ago, our family stumbled upon an old butter factory, and over the years, friends and family have helped us transform it into the place we now fondly call Wolfgangs Palace. It's a place that’s been home to countless festivals, gatherings, and celebrations, welcoming friends from all over Australia and the world.

    Get in touch to chat more. We look forward to connecting with you!

    ~ We live on Gulidjan land and acknowledge the Traditional Custodians - past, present, and emerging ~

    What else ...

    We live an hour from the beach; Apollo Bay, The Great Ocean Road, The Twelve Apostles, Lorne, etc.

    We live 10 minutes from Colac, a small city with all your typical shops, supplies, and public transport. There are 3 cities all within an hour of us; Geelong, Warrnambool, and Ballarat. And we are just under 2 hours away from Melbourne.

    The Otway’s is a half-hour drive from us and there are endless bush walks and waterfalls to explore! The Grampians is a 2-hour drive from us but well worth the trip.
