Farm work is mainly gardening and looking after the animals which all is very easy. Our previous helpers have done between 16 to 20 hours per week which usually gives at least 3 full days off per week and part days off for the other days. We also love to show off our beautiful area of National Parks and waterfalls and Byron Bay is only a short bus trip away.
