Description
Farm: Starting a new farm based on Permaculture, Regenerative Agriculture, Organics, Biodiversity and Education.
We are a couple in our 30's with over 15 years of professional experience in Permaculture, Horticulture and Community Food and planning systems. We are in the exciting phase of setting up our regenerative farm based in Yankalilla on the Fleurieu Peninsula.
We are looking for 2 independent and enthusiastic people, to help out on our farm, with things such as tree planting, harvesting olives, irrigation, pruning, weeding, sheep care and more.
We will offer training in all of these activities and education of Permaculture and regenerative agriculture. We provide in exchange a basic large caravan (in a shed), with cooking facilities, overlooking the ocean for accommodation.
We are completely off grid, so compost toilets, solar power and rain water.
Contact us for more info. Look forward to hearing from you,
Cheers
Chris and Bridgett

Hébergement
We will provide a nice private and large caravan, with a lovely view of the ocean. The bed is realy comfy.
It is self contained so you can cook, use the oven, make cups of tea etc. We will provide staple foods, and cook and eat together several meals per week depending on routine.
Autres infos...
We can help you find all the local sites around our property, people come from all over the world to see the Fleurieu Peninsula, and we are also not to far to Kangaroo Island. We are flexiable in our work, depending on projects. There is always time for fun in between fun jobs :)
We start with a two day trial, to make sure everyone gets on, if so then we can work out how long you would like to stay and work out an outline of your stay.
We are friendly people, very respectful and fairly quiet. We require days off and private time, as you will also. We are good communicators so everything can be worked out.
We look forward to hearing from you, any questions feel free to ask, happy to chat and help :)

They were hard workers, good fun, smart, willing to give anything a go, polite, friendly, good cooks, and kept on a project until it was done.
We had a great time together, and would highly recommend them to anyone else.
We wish them all the best in the future, and look forward to catching up again!

We could not have done better to start our trip in Australia than met Chris and Bridget and spend 3 weeks in their beautiful farm.

Although our time together was only brief, he was a great help, has an excellent work ethic, and was easy to get along with. We had fun, achieved lots of projects around the farm, and enjoyed good conversation, food and wine together over dinner.
We would happily host him again, and recommend him to others :)

Nicky was a pleasure to host, and learnt very quickly. Her positive attitude and aptitude for learning was fantastic.
