About the workproject

We need 4 volunteers

We are a 100 year old family dairy farm, bottling raw milk for members of MannaMilk Limited Partnership. We have an extensive organic veg garden which always needs help. Otherwise, as always, normal chores abound. We are about one hour from Wellington and the farm nestles at the foot of the Tararua Ranges and Forest Park. It's 10 minutes by car to our best-kept secret - our local beach. Or bike there if you want!
