Description
Don. I have a farm situated near national parks and beaches. Close to white water rafting, jet boating, fishing, seal colonies etc . I enjoy fishing and sailing. Gay friendly environment . The farm is run as non profit and is self sufficient in its power being solar electric as well as the hot water vacuum tubes. I can teach you about solar systems as well as organic principals of farming sustainably . I planted a lot of trees 40 years ago that I harvest for timber and firewood . Most of the work I would like help with is in the extensive orchard areas and firewood . There are also tracks to maintain one of which is the historic miners track that leads to a man made dam at the rear of the property , this track is used by cavers and school groups .
The farm boarders the Paparoa National park and is only minutes walk to beaches and a short way to the fantastic Nile Valley caves . Some really nice walks around the area. If you agree to arrive on a certain day please let me know if you cannot make it . Or if you changed plans as I would normally get provisions in for you . The farm supports the struggle of the Palestinian's and we are unlikely to approve any zionists on the property . The farm is very close to Charleston on the Coastal highway 6. not as shown on the map on this site .

Aide
There is a lot of development to be done here so if you would like to help and share time with us you are welcome. Help with pruning trees and general farm help. Also maintenance on buildings etc . It is great to have a spell from cooking so if you can cook thats a bonus . The farm is not a commercial operation and is run as non profit I have had major heart and lung surgery so cannot do a lot around the property that involves lifting etc but I like to work alongside helpers here . I look forward to meeting traveler's from all walks of life

Thank you so much for your hospitality!
