  • Description

    Ciao, Hola, Bonjour Hello lovely host’s of work away!
    Our names are Eden and Tom. We are a couple from a small country town in Australia.

    Since July 2020 we have been travelling around UK, Europe & Australia volunteering at many different farms.

    We have worked on sheep & cattle farms, worked on organic veggie farms, worked picking and packing strawberries, ran a ski chalet in the French alps, renovated a van and trekked around Italy for 6 months, hiking in Morocco and recently lived and worked in FNQ for the last 7 months on a permaculture farm where we had our own veggie garden, I like to bake my own bread and focaccia using my sourdough starter and love to cook everything from scratch.

    We love staying on farms and learning about off grid, self sufficienty & sustainability.

    Our goal is to purchase our own farm one day grow our own fruit & vegetables and serve delicious home cooked food with lots of love!

    We love working with nature and using what it has to offer. Alot of people these days are so reliant on supermarkets and online shopping, we both like to take a step back in time and do things the way they were done 100s of years ago.
