Short Property Description
I am a semi-retired Nurse, Brent is a retired Architect/Builder, we live on 13 acres by the Kangaroo River in the beautiful Kangaroo Valley.
We have a large vegetable garden, citrus orchard, rose garden with other garden beds.
We are about to plant avocadoes & have some macadamias
Also, we have 4 Angus heifers & 1 Highland girl, the chook yard to a bit of decimation, but we still have 4 chooks & are getting another rooster to increase our numbers.
Maralyn is a spinner & weaver, I also mosaic – I like making things! Brent comes in handy here!!!
We love being outside & having outdoor fires, spending time in the veggie garden at sunset & other venues (the cows are always entertaining, they are big pets).
We are fun loving with a friendly disposition.
We are currently renovating our Caravan accommodation so if you have your own accommodation that would be handy

Why I became a WWOOF Host
We had 2 lovely Swiss WWOOFers several years ago whom we are still in touch with, it was a great experience.
Help on our property would be great & the joy again of hanging out with some foreign young folk would be great fun. Also, to hear about their countries, food & customs. Our previous Swiss WWOOFers taught us how their mothers made cheese fondue, it was delicious.
