    Description

    Our names are John and Laura, James and Liz and the 2 kids, Pam and Richard, Wayne and Snow, we live In OREWA AUCKLAND, in a Native Forest.

    We would love some help.
    Forest care and maintenance. Maybe some tree planting.
    There are some other chores in the house, garden and forest - eg. strimming, spraying weeds. We ask our helpers for 4 hours' help for every night they stay, in exchange for accommodation and 3 meals a day. (We provide the food- you cook it in your kitchenette) We live on a hill where there is no public transport, so a car would be better for you. You are most welcome to stay about 2 weeks, or longer if it suits us all. Free Wifi is also available. You will have your own separate private cabin accommodation.

    We are close to the beach, coffee shops and minutes from the highway North and to Auckland. The forest is beautiful and we are a friendly group of people living in a cooperative community.
