    We offer you a room in our family home with Broadband etc.. We are preparing new ground for planting. Our house is a part of a large Hare Krsna Community. There are many volunteers elsewhere on the community with whom you will enjoy sharing meals. We are strictly vegetarian with no intoxication. Yoga classes, massage, swimming when not too cold and walking about our 1,000 acre property as well as milking cows are some of the recreational activities available.

    This is the 'hands-on' way to learn practical application of organic and permacultural methods of gardening. As Hare Krsnas we grow many varieties of fragrant flowers. As vegetarians we will plant plenty of vegies & herbs. New fruit & flower tree plantings are also planned. Covering our 600 metres of fenceline with various flowering and fruiting vines along with more vegies like cuc's and toms and climbing spinaches etc..will be after that.
    So there is plenty in the 'grapevine' but the immediate focus is thickly covering a lot of prepared earth with mulch and then making sure water will be readily available in all parts of the garden. This will require enthusiastic and strong hands on deck. Your appetites will be well rewarded at meal times.
    Hare Krsna spiritual programs every morning and afternoon are open to all and are packed with philosophy, singing [chanting] and dancing according to choice. Several joyous Festivals are programmed for the next 2 months and everyone is welcome to attend.

    Mainly gardening help is required now as Spring is in the air and we need to fully prepare. Summer here comes with much heat and rain so we are required to match the vigorous weed growth. We will spread heaps of mulch which will arrive in large trucks. Our newly acquired excavator will save a lot of work but we will still be very busy. Irrigation will be after that and then planting.
