Help us set up a food forest close to beautiful beaches in Waipu, New Zealand

Infos

  Description

  We live on a large lifestyle block 126 acres near Waipu which is mainly native forest. We have lived here for six years and love the feeling of remoteness while still being only 15 minutes drive from both the village and the beach. Adam works remotely from home and I run a small beekeeping business. We have two grown up children living overseas, 3 dogs, two cats, a small herd of cows, chickens, and bees. Currently we are establishing a wetland planting, rebuilding a large potting shed, and are at the beginning stages of establishing a food forest.
