    Descrição

    We currently have space available in March.

    We are a German family, living in NZ since 20 years, with 3 children, who have left home and are at university or working.

    We have 2 lovely dogs , some chickens , 4 sheep 2 hand reared lambs:) and are in the final process of building our off grid house in the Far North in Kerikeri. We have a 15 acre property where we continuously increase the plantations, with the aim to increase biodiversity, and help with erosion control. Stefan and I live a pre retirement lifestyle and mainly work on our house or land. Ocassionally Stefan still teaches at a local school and I take my food cart out to local events.

    The current projects in February/March are mainly fencing, wood work, helping with the animals, setting up an irrigation system . We usually work alongside our helpers and are happy to teach new skills. We will need to prioritise fencing over the next month to divide up some paddocks for our lambs.

    Workawayer accommodation is in a cute little , insulated caravan (suitable for 2 when travelling together). In addition we can offer places to park a camper van. Life for our workawayers is a cosy camp set up, with shared kitchen and bathroom use in our house. We share all our meals in the house. In addition to the campervan , over summer we have a nice sleeping platform available . It usually gets used 2-3 months a year, if we have more people staying with us.

    If anyone wants support to work on their own van, Stefan has all the wood working tools and knoweledge and is always happy to give advice.

    We provide 3 meals a day and can accommodate a range of dietary requirements.

    We have had quite a few workawayers over the last 24 months, helping us with renovations, house building and gardening. We always had a great time and most stayed between one and three weeks.

    Kerikeri has no public transport, so it is a good idea to come by car however we are always happy to pick anyone up from the intercity bus. We also have 2 push bikes that we can share with our guests to explore the area.
