  Descripción

  Help out with permaculture gardening and small projects on our beautiful semi-rural property in Carmel, Western Australia
  
  We are on a 6-acre property in the Perth hills, close to nature (including kangaroos, quendas, native birds and lots of amazing flora and fauna), bushwalking / hiking, and mountain biking. We are also close to the Bibbulman trail.
  
  We have permaculture gardens where we grow fruit and vegetables, which we like to cook with every day. We have chickens, and 2 friendly dogs. We also have an orchard with plums, peaches, apricot, mulberries, citrus and other fruits. There is a dam, creek (which we are actively re-vegetating), gardens and frog pond.
  
  We are a young family with 2 small children, and both have professions so life is very busy.
  
  We are friendly, honest, caring and fair people who will offer a warm welcome to the right person or couple who share similar values to ourselves.

  Alojamiento

  We have a lovely, clean and spacious guest cottage which is separate to the main house. The cottage has:
  - Queen size bed
  - ensuite with toilet and shower
  - own verandah with view over the garden and frog pond
  - own living space, sofa, table and chairs
  - own kitchenette with bar fridge, kettle and basic cooking facilities (you are also welcome to use the kitchen and/or bbq in the main house if this is not being utilised)
  - separate entrance/exit
  - parking
  
  We expect you'll keep the cottage, ensuite etc clean. No smoking. No drugs.
  
  We separate our waste / rubbish and have compost and worm farms.
  
  You'll need to have your own car and computer. There is no public transport nearby.
  
  We will provide you with meals or ingredients to cook. As we are a young family with small children, you will mostly be expected to make your own breakfast and lunch (ingredients provided), however usually we will have dinner altogether. We love to cook (especially from the garden) and always make an effort to ensure that we eat fresh vegetables and fruit every day. Hopefully you'll want to share some of the cooking too.

  Algo más...

  There is lots to explore in the area, including bushwalking eg lesmurdie falls national park, swimming at rocky pool, and the Bibbulman trail is also closeby. There are also mountain bike trails and lovely bushwalks directly across the road. You are welcome to borrow mountain bikes to do some exploring in the bush surrounds. You will need your own car. We are unable to host Workaways without a car, as there is no public transport nearby.
