The experience

We have some escaping chickens! Task for this one-off project is to clear a fence line and attach some chicken wire. Pretty straight forward. This is perfect for someone that like to dig in into a project and get things done, completed, signed and delivered!

Any extra time, will be spent to improve the chickens coops and watering system.

Program Details

As part of this one-off project you will be dismantling some compost bins and sieve the compost (electric sieve), remove some vegetation, sort our some material that has piled up by the fence and then attach the new chicken wire. It's a perfect project for someone that will enjoy to see a project from start to end.

Activities & Shift

Ideally helpers work 3 days a week on their tasks plus about 30min other working days doing some daily tasks shared amongst the helpers, such as checking animal feed and water, emptying the compost bucket, water plants and do some tidy up. we aim to at least two full days off (usually Saturday and Sunday).

Rules

We hope for helpers to be helpful around the home. Help setting the table and tidy up after dinner, respectful use of water (it's Australia after all!), cook the odd meal. This is not a hostel, we welcome you in our home.
