Description
Owner couple on rural setting both working outside the home looking for help in Rainforest regeneration, weed control and planting + other small build projects. Sitting in the caldera of Mt Warning, we live in Northern Rivers NSW/Half hour south of Qld border, peaceful rainforest and bush setting. Murwillumbah/Tyalgum closest town/village. Able to provide in home accommodation currently with own bathroom- seperate space verandah for your own cave time.
Our " Glassed Bunker' with wet season waterfall is complete. Plenty of private space for down time. Mass birdlife, chooks and dog with the odd goanna prowling around. Coolangatta Airport pick up available. Looking for 5-6 hours a day assist. Prepare own breakfast- with supplied ingredients and enjoy lunch and dinner. Lifts to and from town available with prior arrangements. Beautiful beaches along the Tweed coast, Byron 45 minutes south! Or cool off with a swim in waterhole, a short walk and easy access within a Km. wifi available Mobile reception not the greatest. Internet available.
we are also assisting and looking for help on a 100acre 200 year Conservation listed property "JOY" a few Kms up the road. The previous owner spent over 40 years regenerating a cleared dairy property, planting over 30,000 trees to create a protected biodiversity habitat for endangered native fauna and flora. We look for help on this property that has been negelcted after prolonged illness of previous owner.
You would be staying with us and arrangements made daily for transfer and drop off to and from the property with lunch supplied for the day. Leave after breakfast in your own little sanctuary and return to some down time and dinner Opportunity for own going or return workers welcome!
We do our best to accommodate allergies and preferences and happy to include in down time activities and showing you great local places and activities on offer in this beautiful part of the world!

Keep the dog company and plant some natives in our subtropical rainforest project. An out door shelter project and seperate gazebo also on the ''to do" list
