The Manor is an 11 hectare (27 acre) hobby farm situated in the beautiful Manning Valley on the NSW Mid-north Coast between Newcastle and Port Macquarie. It has a relaxed atmosphere. The animals are friendly and the wildlife is plenty.
I became a wwoofer host to provide people from all walks of life the ability to experience the lifestyle of hobby farm living and the pleasure nature can provide
Organic/Biological methods we use
All our fruit and veg are grown organically using as much as possible natural methods for pest and weed control such as companion planting. We compost food waste along with horse and chicken manure to enrich our soil. Our fields are slashed regularly to create mulch to protect pasture from the frost and increase growth. We Plant native trees to create a rich environment for the wildlife and keep the ecosystem viable.
