Short Property Description
We are situated in the Keysbrook hills (Binjareb Noongar country), about 1 hour south of Perth, Western Australia. We have a small holding of 7 acres with a winter creek, open pasture, orchard, and a bush area that connects to the adjacent forest where the Munda Biddi cycle trail runs past the property. For swimming, the nearby North Dandalup Dam is perfect for a refreshing dip at the end of a hot day in summer & for picnics throughout the year.
Organic/Biological methods we use
We are exploring different ways of producing food – currently integrating syntropic rows. We don’t adhere to any one school of thought and instead focus on soil integrity, water cycle management and growing food for nutrient value. The skills ticked in the list below are indicative of what you could learn depending on the seasonal activities and our stage of development/priorities.

Why I became a WWOOF Host
We believe that developing living soil, growing food and connecting to nature gives people the opportunity to reconnect to a way of life that our fast paced world needs to re-member the true essence of what it is to BE human and do things in a way that considers our role as “Carers of Everything” (Carers of Everything is a custodianship story shared by Uncle Noel Nannup a well respected indigenous Elder we have had the privilege of being on Country with). We love sharing our love of place and connecting with people from different cultures, hearing their stories and appreciating the contribution they make during their stay with us.
