  Description

  Greetings from our little farm! We’re excited to invite you to join us for a while and experience rural life as part of our household.
  
  We are a couple living on a lush 10-acre rainforest property with our two young King Charles Cavaliers. We’re proud custodians of a wide variety of fruit trees and live just a short walk from a beautiful waterfall. Our land is our home, our workplace, and our playground. We’re laid-back people who love the outdoors and the quiet rhythm of life here.
  
  We work to create a place where nature and people thrive together. Days are filled with a mix of planting, weeding, harvesting, and learning new skills (though we don’t start too early in winter). You’ll be able to get involved in whatever suits your interests and strengths — whether that’s caring for the vegetable gardens, helping with our sustainable projects, or simply lending a hand where it’s needed most.
  
  Here’s what you can expect:
  
  The exchange
  22 hours of help a week, spread how it suits you. Some helpers do 3 hours a day across 7 days. Others do longer mornings over 5 days and take 2 days off.
  
  What's in it for you
  
  In return, you get your own private accommodation, breakfast ingredients and tea to help yourself to every day, and shared home cooked dinners 5 nights a week.

  - Farm-to-table meals made with the produce you’ve helped grow
  
  **Accommodation**
  A private mold free Studio is provided, nestled under the main house which opens onto a peaceful rainforest, with walking tracks and waterfalls nearby. It’s a calm, light-filled, nature-immersed retreat that’s fully ready to move into. Ideal for someone easy-going who enjoys a connected, lived-in feel.
  
  Includes:
  - Furnished studio
  - Kitchen - prepare meals for yourself
  - Separate bathroom
  - Shared laundry
  
  Before you leave we would appreciate that you clean your space remove sheets, wash dishes, vacuum and general cleaning to bring the space as it was when you arrived.
  
  We’d love to welcome you and share this chapter of life with you. If you’re interested or have any questions, just drop us an email - We will be happy to chat and share more details.
  
  Come and enjoy the fresh air, the quiet of the forest, and the simple satisfaction of life on the farm. We look forward to meeting you.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We strongly believe in sustainable living and conservation of nature. We're passionate about passing on these values to anyone willing to learn, and also eager to learn from our workawayers. We welcome the exchange of cultures, ideas, and stories, and encourage a symbiotic relationship with nature and our fellow humans.

  Aide

  We invite open-minded and respectful individuals to join our journey, to learn and grow with us. We offer a variety of tasks around the farm, including, but not limited to, pruning fruit trees, composting, building and maintaining infrastructure, and managing the general upkeep of our rainforest sanctuary.
  
  Though we are easy-going, we value dedication. We expect our helpers to be motivated, to follow instructions, and to treat our home and its surroundings with the utmost respect. We understand the value of doing tasks, but also the importance of relaxation and taking time to connect with nature, which is in abundance here.

  Hébergement

  Our workawayers will have access to comfortable accommodation in a tiny home, where they can rest after a day’s tasks. Details regarding food, accommodations, and other facilities will be provided upon inquiry. I was asked to detail here about food by Workaway and there's no space to be more specific so, breakfast is generally muesli, lunch is generally salad or sandwich and dinner is generally a hot meal.

  Autres infos...

  Our property offers a quintessential experience of living in the heart of Mother Nature. Nestled amongst the verdant greenery, we grow a wide variety of fruits. The fragrance of ripening fruit, the sound of leaves rustling in the breeze, and the ambient sound of the nearby waterfall add a charm to our home that is truly unique and magical. We cherish the tranquility here and work hard to maintain and improve this beautiful ecosystem. We are 30 mins from normal shops and 5 from a Delhi. Public transport is difficult.
