Program Details

We own a 40 acre property along the famous Great Ocean Road, 15 minute drive from the famous 12 apostles, and on the outskirts of the beautiful Otway Ranges Nation Park.

We are a privately run Wildlife Park, with the goal of creating a natural sanctuary for our animals. Our park is home to a variety of Australian Wildlife including some herd and farm animals.

Activities & Shift

Volunteers typically help us with animal feeding, along with general park maintenance and upkeep. Other duties such as building or gardening are required, depending on your skill sets.
A major part of our project has also been to become self-sustaining via garden produce and any other means possible. We have hosted volunteers at our premises for over a decade, with over 100 volunteers throughout that time
