Description
We live approx 12 kms out of the city of Tauranga. We have an avocado orchard which is spray free. Approx 70 trees that are picked in March . Our total land area is nearly 3 acres. We keep free range chickens for their eggs and have a large dog. We have 3 adult children one of whom spends sometime at home. Our land and home are restful places , not a lot of noise from us or the neighbours! We enjoy walking, growing things, looking after the land and my husband enjoys working with wood.
I am a retired special needs teacher. My husband plays the cello, classical guitar and recorder and is also retired.
I can cater for vegans and vegetarians as well as omnivores.

The area of the Bay has a lot to offer. Beautiful beaches, tramping in the bush, a great climate and fairly lively city. We live approx 12kms from the CBD but may be able to help with transport.

After work they sometimes showed me some places in Tauranga or let me lend their bike so I could explore the city by myself.
I got much time to relax and they cooked lots of really good food all the time… read more
