    Short Property Description

    We grow lavender flowers on our farm in south west Western Australia. We harvest our lavender for dried flower and we make organic lavender products. Our farm has a large garden and campground that we need help with.

    The lavender is harvested in January. We have a café open 3 days a week, we also have a store in town open 7 days a week.

    Organic/Biological methods we use

    We use mulch to keep the weeds down as well as regular brush cutting in growth season (Oct to December).  We use a weed burner for our paths.  We just built two wicking beds to see if we can grow herbs and salad greens over summer!

    Why I became a WWOOF Host

    We love sharing our property and lifestyle with visitors. We appreciate having helpers and engaging in conversation with people from around the world.

    We believe we offer a great cultural exchange, Rob has an extensive knowledge of the history of the area as he is 5 generations born in Busselton.  Heather has lived and worked in Nannup for over 25 years.

    We enjoy showing WWOOFers our property and talking about our experiences and also learning about other countries and travels.
