Thank you so much............
I just wanted to thank you again for the amazing workaway experience I had at your farm! You were all so incredibly welcoming and just pretty relaxed. It was easy to feel at home from the very start and also to live with all the animals, the hens and the dogs, the sheep and the cows and, of course, the rooster for a while! The work… read more

The work on the farm is a little bit compared to the attentions that the family had for me, so every day I try to give my best effort.
I can't more to say Thank you very much!!! Catherine, Denis, Donna, Leanne, Jordan, Tina, Mackenzie.
Thanks Ireland.
Our job was different everyday: we fed the sheep, the dogs and the cows. We even saw a cow giving birth and we fed the caft with a bottle, we cleaned some areas, we cut some timber,… read more
I stayed two weeks with this family. I could say many things about the experience, the hard work and the other nice “work away” people, but in this family all is different.
This was my best work away experience and I recommend it to anyone.
Best regards to all the kids, Denis and Catherine.
I would be happy if… read more
It was my first workaway experience and I really loved it. We felt like a member of the family from the first moment, Catherine was my sister and the mother than my children.
The 5 children are friendly and it is a happy and fun home… read more
Eric you were great to have around.
Work is motivating, enough to be busy but not too much. The kids are quite active but there's no way of not loving them. For Catherine and Denis, they give you their knowledge, time and even love. I will never forget my time on this farm!
It was my first Work Experience and without a doubt was the best experience that I could've been!
Catherine and Denis made me feel at home from the start and for this reason I'm very grateful.
The work is very quiet and easy, you don't get bored moments because it is a constantly moving… read more

She brought sunshine to our house and felt so much like one of our family. We hope you can come back again. Great worker and very willing even if it was cold and windy. She was perfect. We hope to see you soon Marcia, the children loved you so much and still do.
