Five Oaks Farm is a small rose and olive farm located in the beautiful Sunshine Coast Hinterland. While it is not certified, organic principles and practices are used.
The farm is home to two rescue horses and a beautiful dog. Koala habitat has been planted. The property is walking distance to Mapleton and close to Montville and Maleny.
The Farm is strictly non-smoking. Accommodation is comfortable and the food is good.
The farm makes the world a more lovely place, one bloom at a time. Having your help is important to keep the roses healthy and happy, as weed control is vital in this area. Ideally, I would like to host people with farming/gardening/horticultural experience. The work is primarily weeding and pruning, planting, veggie gardening, and some animal care. I became a WWOOF Host because the idea of sharing the Farm with people from other places excited me. I hope it will inspire others to reach for the stars and do something amazing. You will be very welcome. I remain in contact with the wonderful Wwoofers who have stayed here. I look forward to sharing my knowledge and experience with you!
