Volunteer for approx 25 hours a week – or negotiate for less hours if you provide some of your own food.
We were bushfire-affected [and also landslide-affected] so WWOOFers are eligible for 88-day volunteer work for visa extensions. See link below for forms and information.
Welcome to our community in this beautiful rainforest valley! Our home is part of a 1800 acre multiple-occupancy co-op with 250 residents, one of the oldest and largest intentional communities in Australia. We have our own school, pre-school, community centre, hall & other shared facilities.
We also have lots of weeds & plenty of work for willing hands, from carpentry to gardening!
We have fresh spring water, composting toilet and all mod cons. Mobile WiFi internet access is best with Telstra, although Optus gets some reception.

Why I became a WWOOF Host

I’ve been a WWOOF host for over 30 years and it’s been wonderful! My children (all adult now) have grown up with travellers expanding their view of the world and my garden has grown well with all the help!

Organic/Biological methods we use

We use no chemical sprays or fertilisers and have abundant fruit at certain times (like citrus in winter!). The veggie garden waxes and wanes with the seasons, but usually we have plenty of greens at the very least.
Our friendly worm farm provides great compost and looks after all our food scraps!
