Descripción
Experience a slice of Kiwi rural life with us in the South where we live on a sheep and beef farm. Hi, we’re Hamish and Larissa and we love to share our special part of NZ, living on top of the district at around 400m with spectacular rural scenery, panoramic views and stunning sunrises and sunsets. Ours is a place to unwind and experience ‘heartland’ NZ at its best. We love to meet and connect with travellers, share stories and spin a few yarns. Passionate about the food we grow here, we also love to share this, recognising our lamb and beef is some of the best in the world. During term time our teenage sons are away at boarding school freeing up our homestead to host visitors. Also meet our matriarch and living legend Ann, 86 going on 46 who loves a hand in the homestead’s garden and woodland setting.

Experience a slice of Kiwi rural life with us in our special part of NZ. We are in what is described as heartland New Zealand and farming and rural life is part of our DNA. We love to meet and connect with people, learn about their stories and what’s important to them.
Ayuda
There’s always plenty to do in terms of gardening and general maintenance. Specific help we are needing at the moment is for house painting. While you are welcome to observe farm activities that take place, Workaway assistance requested is for our private homes and gardens. Self drive with own vehicle is best for this Workaway as there is limited public transport in our area.
