What our WWOOFers and Hosts have to say;
“We had a fantastic time on David and Rose’s property in the Kangaroo Valley. It’s a very beautiful place, surrounded by gorgeous sandstone cliffs lit up in the sunlight and the sounds of the creek. Just a few minutes drive down to a beautiful swimming spot. We worked in the veggie garden doing some irrigation, removing some banana palms, collecting mulch, and making firewood. David was a great teacher and was very patient and helpful in answering all our questions. It was particularly interesting learning about organic methods. Eating together was great, it was lovely enjoying a home-baked break, home-brewed beer, and fresh produce! We had a whole cottage to ourselves for accommodation, and the day was a good combination of relaxed and getting down to work. Thank you David and Rose for your warm hospitality!” – WWOOFers Amy and Justin 13-03-22
We will be forever grateful for Janette’s contribution to our farm. Janette stayed with us for over 4 months and invested herself as if it was her own place. She quickly became independent with all cheese-making tasks and our small cheese factory had never been as neat and organised. When she started selling our cheeses at the farmer’s markets, sales doubled. Janette https://wwoof.com.au/members/littlecedar/is also a talented and experienced gardener. Generous, thoughtful, and trustworthy, Janette is someone you can trust and she will accomplish any job with great attention to detail. We truly missed her as she left and took weeks to get used to running the farm without her. – Hosts Victoire and Moussa 08-03-22
