Short Property Description
My partner and I live on a small life-style property. It is not a farm and we do not live in Suburbia. We own a 3 acre bush block – all gum trees – no animals, no crops. We live just 10 minutes from Kempsey and only 20 minutes from the very popular surf beach, Crescent Head. There are two dwellings on our property; we live in one and we also have a flat on the same property for our guests. Part of the flat is also my pottery studio. We would appreciate help with some landscaping ideas and jobs such preparing firewood for the coming winter months. I am a full-time potter and I tutor workshops from my studio therefore I could also use a helping hand with pottery projects and workshops. We do not have pets because we like to encourage the wild life, especially the Australian bird life.
Organic/Biological methods we use
We are creating organic vegetable gardens using our own compost and we will be planting more native trees this year. We also have a bee hive which we will be adding to this year.

Why I became a WWOOF Host
We bought this property one year ago and we would appreciate some help with tasks such as preparing firewood for the winter months, gardening and landscaping the front of our house. I am a full-time ceramic artist and there is always something to do in the pottery studio. We are very proud of where we live and are happy to show volunteers some of our favourite spots on the Mid North Coast.
