    Description

    Come help in the beautiful gardens of our property in Taradale.

    We live on a 5.5 acre hobby farm in Central Victoria, where we grow all our own organic food. After leaving a frantic city life 10 years ago (incl London and Melbourne) we are living a sustainable life, contributing to the building of our ethical and healthy local community. Jane is a yoga teacher and Glenn a Shiatsu Practitioner and disability worker.

    Particular skills we are after:
    - gardening, or an interest in learning and getting your hands dirty!
    - admin and organisational skills to assist in garden projects including seed collection, labelling and sorting etc
    - labouring learning and helping with small farm building projects

    We love to sharing the cooking of the main meals with volunteers. There is plenty of garden produce to inspire your cooking.

    This role would suit someone or a couple who are autonomous, likes to have quiet time alone, and also enjoys working together collaboratively with others living on the property.

    We ask that volunteers have insurance that covers volunteering.

    Please get in touch if you are interested, and please let us know what interests you in volunteering with us.

    There are a variety of tasks on our permaculture inspired garden and around the house.

    In the Spring, the main ones include weeding and maintenance of the vegetable and fruit trees and berry beds, propagation and planting of vegetables, making compost, mowing etc.

    In the Late Summer Autumn, the main task is harvesting and preserving the abundance from the garden as well as propagation and making compost. All year round there is the care of the chickens, ducks and sheep.

    About Taradale : it is a small town in Central Victoria. We are 15 km from Castlemaine which is a thriving and culturally rich town (including artist and environmental sustainable communitiies) in Central Victoria Goldfields region. There is limited but very connected public transport with a local bus during the week between Taradale and Castlemaine; and a train line with easy access to Melbourne (approx 1 hour away) and Bendigo 1/2 hour away.

    Taradale itself has an eclectic mix of locals, with many interesting social events and has its own local Wine and Produce store that serves coffees, wines and pizzas. There is also the monthly Taradale Produce Swap which we go to and take excess produce and plants from the garden to swap with other avid gardeners and cooks.
