I have a 10-acre property in the countryside outside Bridgetown Western Australia with established paddocks, garden beds, a greenhouse, and a huge chicken coop—with nothing in them yet! The property has great potential, but I have limited time with my work schedule, so I’m looking to get it all set up with the help of some local farmers and WWOOFers. I have a fully off grid caravan for a WWOOFer with bed, kitchen, fridge freezer, bathroom with full size shower, gas heater, outside undercover area, phone coverage, WIFI, solar power, rain collection water.
Work has kept me incredibly busy, and while the property has great bones, I haven’t had the time to get things going. I became a WWOOFer host because I have a fully off-grid caravan set up ready for someone who’s keen to help plant trees, fill the garden beds and greenhouse, prepare for chickens and sheep, lend a hand with general property tasks, cleaning, cooking or anything else that might save me some time so I can focus on organizing trades and buying all the materials required for the projects I have planned.
