    Description

    We currently have space available from mid January until mid February.

    We are a German family, living in NZ since 19 years, with 3 children, who have left home and are at university or working.

    We have 2 lovely dogs , some chickens , 4 sheep 2 hand reared lambs:) and are in the final process of building our off grid house in the Far North in Kerikeri. We have a 15 acre property where we continuously increase the plantations, with the aim to increase biodiversity, and help with erosion control. Stefan and I live a pre retirement lifestyle and mainly work on our house or land. Ocassionally Stefan still teaches at a local school and I take my food cart out to local events.

    The current projects are still mainly help with projects in the basement, repairing outside stairs, a veranda and many more … and depending on the weather also some planting/cutting weeds and mowing .

    Workawayer accommodation is in a cute little , insulated caravan (suitable for 2 when travelling together). In addition we can offer places to park a camper van. Life for our workawayers is a cosy camp set up, with shared kitchen and bathroom use in our house. We share all our meals in the house. In addition to the campervan , over summer we have a nice sleeping platform available . It usually gets used 2-3 months a year, if we have more people staying with us. I will put photos from the set up soon:)

    If anyone wants support to work on their own van, Stefan has all the wood working tools and knoweledge and is always happy to give advice.

    We provide 3 meals a day and can accommodate a range of dietary requirements.

    We have had quite a few workawayers over the last 24 months, helping us with renovations, house building and gardening. We always had a great time and most stayed between one and three weeks.

    Kerikeri has no public transport, so it is a good idea to come by car however we are always happy to pick anyone up from the intercity bus. We also have 2 push bikes that we can share with our guests to explore the area.
