Daily family life and help with gardening in Woodstock, New Zealand

  Description

  We are a family living on 58 acres in the beautiful Motueka Valley, needing help with our restoration project, trying to replant the majority of the property in natives, and weed out and restore the existing native bush. We are also looking for people who are interested in engaging with the family and sharing their culture with us. We think this can be a really great learning experience for our children, (aged 12, 10 and 8) and us. We also have lots of animals that love visitors, a super friendly dog, 2 happy cats, sheep, guinea pigs, chickens and a very sweet pony.
  
  The Nelson/ Tasman region is a great place for nature lovers with lots of beautiful beaches and amazing walks in the area. There is rock climbing in Golden Bay, and cycle trails and incredible mountain biking all around us. There are also great cafes and a buzzing art and craft scene. There is lots on offer and lots to experience.

  Autres infos...

  There are plenty of great places to visit in your days off, whether you are hiking, biking, fishing, going to the beach, or going to the movies, cafes, local music shows and markets.
  
  We live rurally, there is no public transport and we are 30 minutes to the next main town. We are a non smoking/ vaping home and property. You need a good level of fitness as the property is steep and the work mostly physical. Animals are a big part of our lives. We homeschool our kids, so we are all home together during the days, when we are not out at activities. We are a welcoming and interested family who are looking forward to meeting interesting and friendly people.
