  Description

  We are a family of 5 (mum, dad and 3 kids- 7 years, 4 years and 1 year old)
  We live on a farm with big vege gardens and orchards, trying to live off the land as much as we can. We live a busy life as we own a native plant nursery and our kids do a range of sports and activities. We also live near 2 beautiful coastlines and love fishing, surfing and beach time. We have lots of ongoing garden projects and need help with the kids.
  Locally the beautiful beache Mangawhai Heads is 15 mins away, along with Te Arai and Forrestry south and Langs and Waipu in the north.
  All are a short drive.

  We are a social family involved in community activities and our business activities. We embrace Māori culture. We are involved in sports clubs and our children’s activities. We are also part of a tennis club and surfing club.
  We have a native plant nursery and re vegetation/ landscaping business so we are involved in many large scale eco / nature projects.
  We have an orchard and vege gardens and we use our produce to make chutneys, jams and preserving etc so we will share these skills. We have chickens, ducks, dogs, cows etc so skills around caring for animals is included.
  I have a background in Geography and anthropology so love learning about other cultures. We both love travelling and learning about the world. We have had many woofers over the years who love our place. We come from a big family and love to share food and spend time together.

  Autres infos...

  There is loads to do in this area. Lovely beaches and the townships of Kaiwaka and Mangawhai are nearby. Lots of hikes and places to swim. Because we are rural it is best if you have your own transport but we may also be able to offer a car to use depending on our arrangement.
  We are a liberal family and pretty flexible. Looking for people who are also flexible and willing to work hard and will give anything an go. Postive attitudes, showing initiative and easily fitting into our family life are key.
