Farming methods
Organic/Biological methods we use
Presently we are composting everything possible, we capture rainwater for gardening. Worm farm helps enrich the soil for growing vegetables. We avoid using sprays, preferring to dig out weeds and make liquid fertiliser from them if suitable.
Solar panels help reduce our electricity use. Aiming to become self sufficient once Orchard starts producing more fruit. Chickens and Ducks are laying delicious eggs. Nearby areas provide large amounts of Saffron Milk Caps during Autumn.
We dehydrate and preserve various foods when excess occurs.

Why I became a WWOOF Host
Previously I have enjoyed hosting international students however after moving to Marysville this is no longer suitable due to distance to schools and I miss interacting with others from interstate or international.
I would like help in establishing my new orchard and creating more vegetable gardens and depending on the season harvesting honey, preserving foods or foraging for fungi.
I enjoy learning about other countries and customs so WWOOF seemed an ideal solution.
