Program Details

We can offer two accomodation options:

1- You will be self-contained in your own vehicle on a flat camping spot in the bush near our home and access our facilities.

2- You can have your own room with queen bed inside our busy house and share the daily chaos. Let us know in your message which option you prefer.

We would like to have 4-5 hours of your time with any garden help (and sometimes house chores) in exchange for accomodation, lunch & dinner (non vegetarian). You can however prepare your own food if you prefer.


Activities & Shift

You will learn about veggie growing, regenerative farming, permaculture and other interesting knowledge we are happy to share for the curious minds.


Rules

Campfire authorised ONLY during fire season (around April til October).
Simple respect, leave the place clean when you leave (camping spot, shared areas).
