Description
We are a family of 4 with a 10 year old daughter and a 8 year old son who live on a 1 ha lifestyle property. We enjoy sharing our place and our sustainable living experience with a wide range of people. Nearby attractions include the Bay of Islands, Waitangi Treaty Grounds, Ngawha natural hot pools, Kauri forests, beaches and the tourist town of Paihia.

We love sharing our place with a wide range of other people and cultural exchange opportunities include events with other homeschool families, local environmental projects, garden workshops, crop-swaps (events where the local community all come together to share produce and knowledge), social events and family outings. We learn so much ourselves from having others staying with us.

Aide
We are looking for help in our organic food forests and gardens. We will be doing tasks together alongside each other and sharing skills so no previous experience is necessary, but you will need at least moderate fitness. We are experienced gardeners and our interests include sustainable living, regenerative agriculture, permaculture, food forests, edible landscapes, seed saving, syntropic agroforestry, biodynamics and Maori organics (hua parakore). There will be lots of opportunity to learn and exchange knowledge and ideas,
