  Description

  We are a friendly, easy going couple living in a little slice of paradise on 2Ha at Ardmore near Auckland. We enjoy living in the country with our cat, Ted, a few chickens and sheep.
  
  Most of the land is covered in beautiful Native NZ bush but we have a project on the go to help preserve and maintain this land from landslips. We are also creating paths and steps within the bush area. We also have a number of projects with gardening, fences to paint and some house maintenance.
  
  We have travelled extensively and just love meeting and new people. We look forward to meeting lots of new people from all around the world, sharing the work on the land and around the house as well as sharing a glass or 2 and a meal at the end of the day on our deck with great views across the Manukau harbour.
  
  We work from home so have the flexibility to be able work alongside you on the land or other times will be in the home office so are easily accessible.

  Aide

  We have a lifestyle, rural property where we host a few sheep and chickens but also an extensive garden and Native bush area.
  At the moment we are working on a special project to maintain and protect the native bush area from erosion. We are looking for some help with project. It also requires some work in the outdoors with building paths and steps through the bush as well.
  We also need some assistance with the garden, caring for the animals , painting fences and general maintenance tasks around the property.
