Programa detallado

We provide accommodation in a shared house with three bedrooms, large open plan kitchen and dining, living area, bathroom. There's an outdoor dining area and firepit, well-equipped kitchen with fridge, hob, microwave, oven, slow cooker, toaster, also laundry facilities and yoga mats.

We provide vegetarian provisions for you to self cater, including eggs and honey from our own farm. You don't have to be vegetarian to stay with us; you can buy your own meat/other luxuries.

We are a friendly family with a small homestead and a second property undergoing restoration. We follow regenerative practices. We are 18 minutes drive to the beach on the Sunshine Coast.

You’ll be based on our property which is not served by public transport although we provide bicycles and it's a 16 minute cycle ride to the small market town.

If you have your own campervan, you can also come anytime and share the house, just sleeping in your campervan.

We are looking to accept volunteers who have a real interest in our way of life. Current projects may include:
- carpentry and construction
- gardening including potting, propagation, watering, weeding
- property management including brush-cutting, composting, harvesting, mowing, native planting, mulching, seeding, strimming ("whipper-snipping"/"weed-wacking").
- maintenance including painting, repairs and renovation
- regenerative farming.

There is always plant propagation and property maintenance to do.

You will need sensible working boots or closed-toe shoes, a good hat, and sunscreen. If you come in The Wet, you'll also need waterproof boots and wet weather gear.

Actividades & Turnos

There’s plenty to do on the property on your time off: art, baking and cooking, exploring, gardening, hanging out, napping, observing the wildlife, reading, relaxing, resting, picking herbs, planting natives, pruning, sunbathing or in the wet season, splashing in the puddles ...

We offer a traditional volunteering experience, five hours a day, five days a week.

Note: we do not provide paid work here. Worldpackers is about you providing voluntary work in return for accommodation, food, hospitality and utilities.

For the right people, volunteer work with us can qualify for a second or third Working Holiday visa based on volunteer disaster recovery work, selecting ‘flood recovery - volunteer’ under ‘Employment type’ when completing a visa application form on ImmiAccount. (Information correct at time of writing - please check whether this is relevant to you).

You will live in a shared house; we are generous with food, have good wifi and water, a brilliant location within a very safe property just 10-20 minutes drive of the beach. As a family we work hard, so we expect you to work hard, diligently and safely during your on-duty hours.

Duration is normally for one - three months, occasionally less.

Hours are typically 7am-10am and 11am-1pm. We find this works well, before the heat of the day, so that you have the afternoons and evenings off, as well as two full days off. If you want to start earlier and finish earlier, that's fine.

Preferred arrival days are Monday afternoons, with departures usually on Monday mornings, after you have cleaned where you were staying and set it up ready for the next Workawayers.

Reglas

We provide accommodation with full facilities. We also welcome people with own self-contained campervan or similar.

We provide food for you to self-cater. We provide your accommodation, bedding, and all your food including our own honey, free range eggs, as well as herbs, fruit and veggies when in season from the gardens and orchards or local stores, plus other pantry necessities.

We provide accommodation with your own bedroom if you are a couple, or a shared room if you are a singleton, living room, kitchen, bathroom, barbecue deck, firepit and laundry facilities.

If you have your own self-contained vehicle or camper-van, we can provide a good parking area with access to electricity, harvested filtered rainwater, wifi. You can share and use the house facilities including kitchen, food, living room, laundry facilities and bathroom.

Our properties are next to Mount Ninderry and close to Coolum Beach. There are many lovely beaches, country towns, national parks, state forests, and waterfalls around, great rock climbing, watersports, horseriding and hiking. Iconic Noosa is about 25 minutes away.

Our family operates Bamboo Park free range farm, Fairhill Native Botanical Gardens & Cafe Bar Restaurant, and the Flow Bouldering gym nearby. We can arrange free passes for bouldering.

There is a good cinema nearby with "cheap Tuesday" tickets. There are excellent farmers' markets which you can attend if the family are going there, or if you have your own transport.
