Christine Morrow
A classic Queenslander home on one of Moreton Bay’s islands. Here are fruit trees, a herb garden and veggie patches. The Cockatoo House has a worm farm and a composting system. Everything operates on permaculture principles. The garden needs to be tended and expanded and there is a chicken coop that needs rehabilitation.

Why I became a WWOOF Host

I became a WWOOF host because I’d love to meet people who are passionate about sustainable food practices and can help me to develop my own permaculture garden while I can simultaneously help them to develop their skills in food growing and food preparation.
I bought my house here recently and am embarking on a life of growing my own food. I have already planted some fruit trees and a herb garden. Vegetable beds will come next and I also plan to rehabilitate the chicken coop.
I am an artist and writer so working from home while developing self-sufficiency is a wonderful way of organising my life. I grew up between three cultures (raised in Australia by a father and mother who were each from a different foreign country) so I am really interested in different languages and cultures. I would absolutely love to host people from other countries who would be willing to share their language, expertise, and experience with me. Sharing my home and garden with WWOOFers would be very fulfilling.

Organic/Biological methods we use

I use permaculture principles. Fruit trees, herb gardens and veggie patches are nurtured using compost and ‘worm tea’ as well as purchased dung-based fertiliser.
