Description
Our little farm is located in the Lower Hunter Valley (Laguna, Wollombi Valley) and is only 2 hours from Sydney. We breed alpacas and grow seasonal produce.
Work varies depending on the season and the projects we currently have.
Summer is Roma tomato season.
Winter is garlic planting with harvesting in early Summer.
All year-round lavender and bush care and some gardening.
Mid-October is Alpaca shearing week.
Afternoon feeding the alpacas and donkeys.
Building projects such as livestock sheds we are working on at the moment and building maintenance.
Depending on the dates, stay in our unique vintage train cabin or our shearer's studio. Our train has a full kitchen and bathroom, hot and cold water shower, comfy bed, and lounge room. The shearers studio only has a kitchenette, so cooking at our house.
Things to note
* You need your own vehicle to here.
* Suitable for couples (not children or pets).
* Limited internet (wi-fi) due to satellite as no mobile in our area
* off-grid farm staying in our shearers studio overlooking the farm.
* Amazing food and an off-grid experience.
