  Description

  Our rural property is in the beautiful Yarra Valley. Our property is a nature lovers paradise as they are many native birds and animals including Lyrebirds, Scarlet Robin, Crimson and Eastern Rosellas, Wedge-tailed Eagles , koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, possums and gliders. We are a Wildlife Shelter and care for mainly wombats and soft release possums, kangaroos and wombats.
  If you are passionate about animals and have some practical skills to assist with reducing foliage in pre-release enclosures, cleaning current enclosures and collecting grass for wombats, this may be your workaway and we would love to hear from you. We also have a large organic edible garden and this requires preparing for the Spring growing season. Your own car and Working Holiday Insurance is preferable.
