  Description

  Hi,
  WE can not believe how fortunate we are to live out regionally, away from the cities, in a small community. Our nearest neighbour is daisy the cow, who lives 5km down the road. Our community are very supportive farming people, who treasure this part of the world.
  So, welcome to our farm; springis here and Summer is around the corner. We are a family of four with many animals attached. Kiwi people living in South West Victoria. Home to the Grampians, close to Portland and the beaches 40mins away. We own and run an Dairy Farm. We have recently added Garlic and more. This place is beautiful.
  
  At present, our projects are centred around diversification while creating harmony between, us the animals insects and mother nature. Some of the projects include creating new garlic beds, vege beds, building a new garage / storage living space. We would like to create a forest, need help caring for animals,working on the farm and milking cows. Most importantly, adding Bee hives to our farm. Yes bees, need flowers, we need pollination on the farm, so we will encourage bees and beneficial bugs to keep our farm beautiful and alive. So many options....
  
  I am a Secondary Teacher and part time on the farm. Husband is always busy, and our kids keep us active. Plenty of room to park up your car or bike. We are an active family and prefer a non smoker. Closest town has multiple Gyms and an Aqautic centre. Wildlife galore, sometimes on the back doorstep. Shared living space with the family, as we would like to give our family a cultural exchange and learning from you.
  
  A family of many Interests, a busy family who enjoys time at the beach or hiking, we would like to have you join us on our adventure in farming and living in the country,. WELCOME to WALLACEDALE, Victoria Australia.
