Short Property Description
Hi there lovely WWOOFers! Sam (37) Clara (31) and Reilly (1.5 in 2020) here. While Reilly was just a twinkle our eyes, Clara and I spent 4.5 years travelling Australia in our awesome veggie oil-powered Landcruiser, searching for the most beautiful spots to set up camp and call home for a week or two. After our first 3 month tour of Tasmania, we just fell in love with the place, returning every summer for more of the same. Somehow we just knew we’d end up here.
As we travelled, we gained a real appreciation for simple living and developed a taste for the best organic local food sourced from farmers markets as we went. This just helped fuel the dream of a beautiful camp to set up in permanently, and do our best at living a low impact, natural, self-sufficient, homesteading lifestyle. When 6 months pregnant, out of the blue, the bank of Dad called up and offered a loan to help make our dream come true. And we‘ve always dreamed big.
Organic/Biological methods we use
Companion planting, humanure composting, building soil health through effective micro organisms.

Why I became a WWOOF Host
Many hands makes light work…or in our case…much work requires many hands! We have found having volunteers helping out with the various tasks and projects required to live a natural, self-reliant, homesteading lifestyle to be a very rewarding experience.
As well as getting heaps done, we have laughed, cried, joked and sang, sweated and relaxed, ate, drank, made merry, and formed lifelong friendships with past helpers. They have had a huge positive impact on our lives and the life of our little fella, Reilly.
