Description
We are currently building an outdoor kitchen and require assistance with this. Gardening always needed. We work long hours, Peter often 6 days per week so visitors have time to themselves to explore our beautiful environment. Over 50 species of bird life have been spotted on our property. Resident wallabies, bandicoots and possums. A bike can be provided however there is a bus at the door ( 1 morning and 1 afternoon trip). Walking distance from station to Sydney or Blue Mountains stops. Can spend some with Peter at his environmental education centre and help out with the worm farms, bush tucker, native plants and vegetable gardens. Huge selection of books of all genres available to read on the deck or swing lounge in private garden setting. Huge spa bath available. All water rainwater, solar powered home. We'd love to mosaic our water tank if anyone is able to start this project (not a priority, just a thought!).
