Short Property Description
Amorata Eco Farm is a mixed organic farming and tourism operation located at the foot of the Border Ranges National Park near Nimbin, NSW. We farm Limes, Pecans and Ginger with a mixed output orchard that supplies our own needs as well as those of guests. Our campground is surrounded by regenerating rainforest with a natural pool and wood fired sauna for guests and visitors to use. Woofers will have access to either a tiny home with all amenities, a caravan or a spacious bedroom in the main home. Work may range from tree planting to light gardening and harvesting. Skilled workers may find themselves well resourced to carry out special projects.
Organic/Biological methods we use
We use a variety of organic techniques but rely a lot on integrated pest management and resource recovery from on farm processes such as waste water treatment, compost toilets, worm farms etc. Please note we do use herbicides on areas that are not covered under our organic certification. These are primarily used for bush regeneration and do not affect food production areas.

Why I became a WWOOF Host
I became a WWOOF host many years ago and have had over 300 Wwoofers enjoy my hospitality whilst I was developing my property. I have had a long break from hosting and now would like to offer a new set of experiences to guests and pass on the many skills I have acquired over the years to those who might like to consider a career working on the land.
