Short Property Description
The Urban Farmer Blue Mountains – Co-Creating a Creative Space for Community to Connect. This space is in the throes of design, construction and planting. Full steam ahead over the next few weeks, so I’m getting REALLY eXciTeD.
We are ramping up / tidying up / putting finishing touches on anything we can to get ready for the upcoming Blue Mountains Edible Garden Trail on 2-3 March 2024. I can accommodate a couple or 2-3 friends travelling. If there is more than 3 people, hit me up and we will discuss our options. Would Love Love LOVE Your help.
The design incorporates a Pond Performance Space (think .. singers, musicians, actors, stand up comics, storytellers and poets), Edible Food Forest (densely planted), Workshop Space, Healing Room, Breakout Areas, Communal Circle with Fire Pit, a Pizza Oven in the Dragon’s Lair (it will actually be in her tummy), Bush Tucker Walk / Aboriginal Dreaming, Children’s Play Space, Chickens, Worms and Whatever other Creative Pursuits we can collaboratively add. The Zen Space is now going to be in a spiral located on the forest edge, so would love to get that happening before we open as well.
Our primary purpose is to teach Permaculture. The space is being set up so that interested parties will be able to teach what they are passionate about. We will build and connect Community through Workshops and Performances which will be offered at a nominal cost.

Why I became a WWOOF Host
Why I choose to become a WWOOF Host : This social enterprise is all about building Community. I cannot do it on my own. I do believe that Volunteers who are excited about contributing to this Creative Space, bring JoY and Love to this Project. And it seems that there are people out there that really do get ‘Community’.
I’ve been wanting to join WWOOF site for many years and it seems .. the time is ripe. So here I AM. My home is small and cozy and backs onto National Park.. It has great energy. People love what we are Co-Creating here. I hope to attract people with skills to help build pizza oven, the communal circle, some structural things and mostly HELP in the garden.
I AM a student of Permaculture and would be delighted in sharing my learning with any guests if interested. People find me a welcome host and I would also encourage you to explore the beautiful Blue Mountains whilst you are here. Friendship is my second highest Value so what better way to build local and global friendships and community than to be involved as a host.
I also hope one day to be on the travelling and tasting end of WWOOFing. PLEASE NOTE: I Am Highly Allergic to Cigarette Smoke so I apologise for not being able to host people who smoke. Please also note, I am also highly allergic to deoderant, hair spray, perfume and some other strong personal care products. The house is predominantly cleaned with essential oil products.
