Kia Ora from New Zealand!
We are a relaxed couple who live in a 100 acre forest in Riverhead, Auckland. Currently we are busy with building our home on our private and quiet piece of paradise, and managing our farm as organically as we can. Since we are in the process of building our dream home the house is still a work in progress! (we are closed in and water tight with limited services running.. and just about to finish painting internal walls.) We live relatively comfortably right on the building site along with our dog, two talkative cats, and plenty of farm animals ( chickens, ducks, turkeys and rabbits).
We are looking for couples or individuals who are keen to help out with gardening and with some building projects. In exchange we can provide accommodation and meals which are often straight from the farm.Tipos de ayuda y oportunidades de aprendizaje
