We have been getting helpers now for awhile, and our progress in getting back on our feet after Cyclone damage is going well.We usually have a wide range of tasks on our list to do as living in the nature naturally means there are always things to do. Non judgemental Helpers who want to experience something different preferred.As Spring is now here, there is a recycling project of one of our Cyclone damaged cars, if this interest you ?- then you are most welcome at this time.There is always maintenance to do around the gardens & forest.


Helpers usually stay from one week to three weeks depending on their travel plans, tasks on our list, skills and how you take to living in the Nature and the weather. Helpers have double or queen beds to sleep in. The Internet is available.

Staying with Mike and Tanja was an amazing experience. They were so kind and welcomed me with open arms. It was a really peaceful environment and helping Mike in the garden was so fun and educational. I got to learn a lot about nature and wildlife, and loved helping with his projects. After working in the morning, you get the day to explore the stunning surrounding area, and Mike also offered to drop me at the bus stop every day. Thank you so much for hosting me and I hope to be back.

I stayed at Mike's for 10 days and had an amazing first Worldpackers experience! He was patient, explained things clearly, and shared his inspiring vision for the garden, which made the work even more meaningful. I learned so much about reusing materials, local wildlife, and the Proserpine area. It’s easy to visit Airlie Beach after work, and Mike had awesome tips on what to do. I totally recommend volunteering here!

I really enjoyed my stay with Mike! The work was fun and very educational. Mike is a great guy, always kind and helpful. He even offers to drive you to the bus stop every day to get to Airlie Beach. I would recommend!

Our time with Mike was a good break from traveling. We did 3hours of cutting Mango Trees from 7-10 in the morning. After that we jumped into the pool, cooked us some food and relaxed. Mike took us to Proserpine once and offered everyday to take us to the bus stop to Airlie. Mike is a very nice and kind men, who taught us a lot about his "jungle". The work can be a bit exhausting, but still manageable. Definitely prepare yourself for lots of mosquitoes. Bring mosquitos spray, long socks + trousers + good shoes.

Reasonable work load outdoors helping prune and landscape! Mike works with you and teaches you as you go which makes it really educational and collaborative! Food choices are minimal but they have the basics. You cook for yourself and mostly hang by yourself (or with your other volunteer). You work 7-10 am and are free to explore Whitsunday area for whole rest of your day! We spent all our free time in the pool, working on our devices, and watching movies. I learned alot about how to care for mango trees, grow plants from cuttings, and got more comfortable using a hand saw and climbinh trees.
