  Descripción

  Our family home is nestled in seclusion on 1/4 acre in the heart of town with Australian birds & wild life a plenty, a creek & bush reserve. Our garden consists of fruit trees, Bush Tucker, herbs, veggies, worms, bees, chooks & ducks. Must love animals and have no allergies as we have indoor cats and our friendly Labrador, Dex. We accept workers in a gift economy sense. Give freely, receive freely. Share the load with a bit of help in our home & garden in exchange for accommodation & sharing skills.
  
  We follow permaculture methods because we are passionate about self-reliance & future steading. We love growing, cooking, preserving, fermenting, medicine -making & brewing our home-grown & local produce. We have many permaculture systems in place & can show how these self-sufficient principles work in a 'normal' aussie house block in suburbia.
  
  Experience sustainable and self reliant practices like permaculture, fermenting, greenhouse gardening, propagating, home brewing, beekeeping, making mead, canning & pickling, weaving & Herbal medicine.
  
  Other hobbies include weaving, bushwalking, swimming, surfing, cycling, music, craft and yoga.
  
  Keith is Canadian (we met while he was backpacking & surfing in Oz in '89), Nicole is of Italian heritage and grew up in Ulladulla. We have 3 grown children & 2 beautiful grand daughters 3&4 who live around the corner & visit often. We are easy walking distance (10mins) to Mollymook beach, Ulladulla Harbour & shops & a few minutes drive to Milton.
  
  We prefer to start with a 1-2 week stay and longer by negotiation . Work is 2-3 hours (weekends free), leaving you plenty of time to explore the beautiful south coast. Acommodation is self contained so you can cook for yourself, and share some meals in the big house with us.
  Learning sustainable and self reliant practices like permaculture, fermenting, greenhouse gardening, propagating, home brewing, beekeeping, making mead, canning & pickling, weaving & Herbal medicine.
  Nicole also runs the occassional community workshop.
