Description
Currently (May & June) we are looking for people to help with planting on a big native regeneration project at Mānuka Bay.
Also It would be great to find someone to stay for the whole of June. We have another litter of piglet due any day, a sweet old golden retriever dog & chickens that need feeding as well as some light gardening jobs & some occasional campground cleaning.
A bit more about us…
We are a family who enjoy living on our 33 acre lifestyle block on the edge of the great rural village of Cheviot in North Canterbury.
Life is generally quiet during the week, taken up with work & chaotic in the weekends.
We live in a new home about 5 minutes drive West of Cheviot.
lots of animals
We are still pretty new to this & have found that it works best with helpers over the age of 24 that have their own transport. -

Hébergement
You will have your own bedroom in the house with a double bed for a single person or a couple this has its own verandah with epic views of the Kaikoura mountains. You will have your own bathroom during the week & share it with Danica (age 16) in the weekend. There is plenty of space with a large living room / kitchen as well as a chill / reading room.
Most food provided. It would be great to share the cooking of the evening meal, it’s always nice to try new foods. Other basic food will be provided (weetbix, bread & spreads for breakfast) You may need to provide your own lunch or at least make it. -
Autres infos...
Where we are & what's close by:
1 hr drive to Kaikoura to the north where you can swim with dolphins & go whale watching.
1 hr 15 mins to Christchurch City in the south
1 hour to the Hanmer Springs Village & hot pools, among the mountains in the west.
8km to the beautiful Gore Bay beach, popular surfing & swimming spot.
4km to Cheviot Village from our house where there is a supermarket, a general store, butcher, a gift shop, a cafe and a Hotel/bar/restaurant/liquor store.
There is also the beautiful Cheviot Hills domain where you can find pocini mushrooms!
20 mins to the Hurunui river, In season you can catch trout & salmon.
We look out to the Randm spur, which is a great mountain biking track with lovely views from the top.
