Description
We are a Kiwi family of four - Mum, Dad and 2 girls aged 17 & 14. We run a large sheep/beef farm in Cheviot, North Canterbury. (approx. 1 hour North of Christchurch). We need help mostly in our garden (a very large garden) and general outdoor work, there is also cleaning in and around the house and if you love to cook, we would love that too!! Must be handy with a hedge trimmer/tools/chainsaw etc.. and ride-on lawnmower. Lots of work, if you are up for the challenge! Good food along with a crazy, fun-loving family (never a dull moment in this home!). If you love being outdoors and being apart of a family environment, then give us a call!

We have a large 5 bedroom homestead. Helpers will have a very comfortable spare bedroom to sleep within the family home. We also have other accomodation that we are currently working on that will be available in the new year so that we can accomodate more than 2 helpers. Wifi available and all meals included. (We would love that helpers would share in cooking their national dish).

We are close to the Hurunui River, which is known for it's Trout fishing, Jet boating and Kayaking. We usually take a picnic and go down to swim at the river. We are a approx. 15-20 mins from the very popular & beautiful Gore Bay (Surf & Swim Beach). Winter sports for those who love skiing, like we do, we have Mt Lyford Ski field approx. 1 and a half hour drive.
