Detalhes

Descrição
This is a beautiful smaller (3.25 hectare) countryside section ready with space to help with organic vegetable gardens and restore some fruit trees below the house with organic methods. Help maintaining a beautiful large older house would also be appreciated. The property is not far from the first land sighted by Captain Cook when he arrived in New Zealand in 1769. Fruit trees include a small number of citrus, plum, apple, pear, feijoa, ginkgo and avocado trees. In addition there are several nut trees (macadamia and walnut). Next to this section, the family also has a small citrus orchard and hills with ongoing planting of native trees together with grazing for a limited number of (named) sheep and cattle.

Absolutely outstanding. Highly recommended. We were incredibly lucky to have Bernard visit us at Pakowhai for several days near the end of his NZ visit. Incredibly skilful and amazingly ambidextrous, he very rapidly and expertly weeded and pruned the entire garden that had become rather overgrown - Bernard knew exactly what was required for each… read more

This workaway experience was our second during our stay in NZ and nothing bad to say this time either.

My stay on Pakowhai was one I will never forget. Richard opened his house to me and Sam. He is such a sweet man who has a beautiful house and orchard. He loves to host woofers and workawayers (sometimes a bit to many but it made it feel like one big family). He likes it when people are hands on, thinking a head and take responsibility.
