Help at our small farm in Australia!
La experiencia
We have a small hobby farm just outside of Gunnedah, NSW. We grow a large area of summer veggies and have a few cattle, chickens and Jack Russell puppy dogs. We have put in most of our Summer crops, picking should start by December. There is tractor driving to do or mowing with a zero-turn, Weed chipping, irrigating, sauce and relish making from our own produce and other chores associated with a farm lifestyle.

Programa detallado
The help is very basic and repetitive: watering greenhouse and outdoor plants, picking vegetables, pulling weeds, watering crops, mowing the lawn... We have chickens for eggs and Jack Russell dogs and a few cattle when the seasons are good. If you have a special skill we will try and utilise it. We also make a range of Pickles, Chutneys, Sauces and Jams from our own produce and sell on farm or at the local markets. There is always something to do around the place.
We are a simple hobby farm, We try and have a self-sustaining farm but not there yet. We have solar but not off-grid. We utilise all veggie waste that doesn't sell by making condiments or on feeding to chickens and cattle or simply putting back into the soil as organic matter. We are not organic farmers. We are not vegetarian.
Getting here from Sydney is easy on the train - 6hr trip. From Brisbane harder, flights involved
Actividades & Turnos
In the Winter, we usually do outside stuff in the afternoons but during Summer get out early before the heat and UV light arrives
