Description
We (Jake and Hannah) both grew up in Nova Scotia, Canada and have been friends since birth! We both share a strong interest in sustainable agriculture and spending time outdoors, which is what has brought us to New Zealand this year.

Both of us have spent time working on farms in Canada, learning some basics around permaculture and general farm maintenance (we have both supported community supported agriculture programs in our home province!). We love being able to connect with people and explore new places, and are both laid back hard workers ready to get our hands dirty. We're always motivated to take on a new adventure and see what different opportunities have to offer as we make our way through NZ.

We hope to be able to work with likeminded people, share knowledge, and learn lots!

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
Our passion for being outside and the environment has brought me to explore farming first hand through WWOOF a few summers ago. That experience allowed us to understand a few basics around organic farming, but we are both eager to continue learning.

Hannah has worked on a teaching farm learning about permaculture, sustainable agriculture, and garden maintenance. Jake has worked on an organic vegetable farm learning about community support agriculture.

Both of us have a knack for adventure and experiencing new things. While we bring many skills related to farming and 'getting our hands dirty', we are quick learners and have a strong dedication to learn more.

Laissé par l'hôte (Help us with native bush ...) pour le workawayer (Jake & Hannah)

We totally enjoyed having Jake and Hannah stay with us. They were such lovely, warm and fun people to have around and we would have happily had them stay longer if their itinerary had allowed. They weren't afraid of hard work and humped heavy timbers to the top of our hill to reinforce a track wild pigs had damaged, weeded the vegetable garden and… read more

Our stay with John and Fi was absolutely incredible. Their property and place is truly a slice of paradise, and both John and Fi are such great company - they made us feel at home and welcome right away! The work was extremely fair. We enjoyed the tasks helping them weed their garden and repair some of the pathways on their beautiful property, and… read more

Hannah and Jake are a delightful couple, they are hard workers and will take on a difficult challenge with gusto. Taught Jack the electric chainsaw and he treated her with respect. They did some some hard challenging work like cutting a cleaning a whole clump of very large bamboo. They also tackled very large gorse overgrown with honeysuckle and… read more

Our stay here was the best first workaway experience! The work was super reasonable and varied, and Jenny’s cooking was delicious. We loved taking care of the Alpacas and getting to know the family - we even got the chance to watch the kids’ national surf life saving competition down at the beach! Highly recommend this stay, the property is… read more

Jake and Hannah were lovely, interesting and very helpful. They worked really hard on our shed - undertaking some pretty grim tasks with a smile!! They managed themselves, slotted in to what was actually a very crazy couple of weeks as our kids had heaps of stuff on, and even looked after our property and animals for us whilst we went away for a… read more
