Live off-grid and learn a variety of new skills helping on an organic farm in the Conondale Valley, Australia

Infos

• 

  Description

  We, Rosalba and Mark, run a certified organic farm in the beautiful Conondale Valley, Sunshine Coast Hinterland. We are 20 minutes from Maleny by car. We live in a straw bale house (which we built ourselves), which is completely off grid. Our main produce is eggs but we are slowly making inroads into growing vegetables. We adhere to permaculture principles. We are vegetarian but we can cater for vegans.
