Hello Helpx helpers. Now offering farmstay accommodation in the BEST part of the Adelaide hills. We may be biased but we wouldn't choose to live anywhere else. Springs is here and Summer is coming soon and we would love some help. Please check our reviews if you think you will fit in here. We are happy to have people for short or longer term if they enjoy learning on the farm and seeing the local area. The cozy caravan is currently available for helper use. Cozy and private away from the house so you will have your own space. We are currently setting up the market garden (vegetable garden) and hops (used in the manufacturing of beer) garden for the 2025/26 growing season. Planting seedlings, potting on seedling, weeding, mowing, bed preparation, fruit tree pruning and netting. Very easy work which is always easier with some extra hands. Beautiful and quiet Adelaide Hills Location. Close to Hahndorf, Stirling and Bridgewater. Plenty of local nature walks. We have all sorts of ani...

Hi, I’m Annie :) Thanks for stopping by! Looking for help *** from now through February/ March , 1 wk - 10 days work for a couple *** At the moment I'm looking for help with Spring cleaning in the house and garden work; mulching, light pruning, fertlising, tidying up garden and some indoor/ outdoor house work. Mostly this would be cleaning spider webs off gutters, garden maintenance and window/ blind cleaning, cleaning out pantry, kitchen cupboards, cleaning oven, etc. It would be useful is someone was confident with a drill and some very basic carpentry work, to hang some outdoor ornaments.

My home is in Dunsborough, part of the famous Margaret River Wine region in the South-West of Western Australia. Dunsborough is a beautiful, quiet coastal town, with great facilities.

I live a 2 minute walk from the beach, beautiful Dripstone Cliffs and Casuarina Coastal Reserve, with my two teenage children, Jack and Amy. The Reserve has many walking and bike tracks We love hosting people who are respectful, positive and interested in simple, natural lifestyles. We eat a healthy, simple and low sugar diet- rice, local vegetables, seasonal fruit, meat etc. I’m happy to accomodate any dietary requirements. I used to host a lot but haven't hosted for a while as we have been moving house and then reorganising our lives. We have made some wonderful friends through this program and having extra help has kept us sane when we are in town. The kind of help I would appreciate can be quite varied. I always appreciate help with general house stuff, i.e. cleaning, gardening, cooking etc. If you have a special skill let me know about it and I am happy to find some projects that could utilise your skill. We have had people help with carpentry, electrics, painting (both artist...

We're about to get ducks in addition, we're about to put 12v solar power into the rooms, also natural air-conditioning and are finishing up the spa bath in the 2nd bathroom... so there's a bit for you to learn and lots of knowledge to take home.

Besides having a few rooms available, there're also 2 campervans if you have the desi...

We are a fit and active couple in our 70s who have recently bought a home (2021) right by the water on Lamb Island in Moreton Bay, 30km from Brisbane. It has great views over the bay and has good access to fishing, crabbing, safe swimming and boating. There is a fast and regular ferry to the mainland that takes 20 minutes. There are also several other islands nearby that can be explored including North Stradbroke Island that has wonderful beaches and walks and lots of wildlife including koalas, kangaroos, turtles and dolphin and - from June to October - humpback whales. Over the next two years we will renovate and paint the home, install new kitchen and two bathrooms. Graham has some woodworking skill but needs help during that time with various tasks and we are willing to give you a comfortable bed, good food and company and access to bathroom and washing machine in exchange for 4 hours help per day, 5 days per week. Our preference is for a single person or couple who have some skil...

I'm currently looking for someone/people to help with yard maintenance and landscaping for about 4 hours a day in exchange for food and accommodation; open to negotiation.

We are near the Shoalwater Marine Park and Penguin Island 40mins from Perth city centre. Very close to public transport, cafes and library. Ideal for beach walking, diving, swimming, cycling, fishing, sailing and windsurfing (beach is 60 metres away). Accommodation would take form of a fully insulated cute tiny garden room with access to undercover cooking area and bathroom. IT is small so please See photos. On week days we are usually working it Perth so we cant provide meals, but a well-stocked supermarket is 200 metres away. We average 2/3 hours a day painting, plumbing gardening and other repairs and can negotiate best time to do that, for example maybe it’s more convenient to do two longer days during the week. Free coffee, tea and a simple breakfast (i.e. Cereal, toast) usually available. When you email please let us know when you plan to get to Perth and how you are travelling (flying in, driving or bus etc.). If you are already in Perth, where you are staying and how long yo...

Looking for help with the garden and the house, this will take up 2h/day. I live in Thurgoona, which is a suburb of Albury. There is unlimited internet, you will have your own room. This helpx placement would suit a fit single traveler with own transport who can work unsupervised. Would prefer a male helper with references and own initiative, non-smoker. All the heavy work is done now and it is mainly maintenance, mostly weeding and tidying up. I am a dual citizen with German heritage. I work part-time from home and part -time outside of the house. Albury is on the main highway between Sydney and Melbourne, about 6-7h from Sydney and about 4h from Melbourne. It is a nice country town with cafes and all shops etc., Saturday night life, cinema etc. There is the weir for swimming, some nice towns to visit in the mountains, such as Bright, Mt Beauty and Falls Creek. There are also a few areas with famous wineries around Rutherglen, the King Valley etc. Thanks.

If you would like a homely, wondrous Blue Mountains experience, nestled in nature, without being surrounded by tourists, you’re welcome to stay with us. You will relax and unwind here, sit in front of the fire in the evenings, drink tea, go on bushwalks, watch the alpacas, and share stories. Then wake to amazing sunrises! Especially quiet for those that have just come from a Vipassana meditation retreat. If you're a rock climber, you can walk to crags at Shipley and Centennial Glen. We have two alpacas, some chickens, and two indoor cats. We live in a new house on a two acres, next to the Blue Mountains National Park. Amazing bushwalks begin at our home. Walk to Govetts Leap waterfall, Evans Lookout, the Grand Canyon, and Blue Gum Forest. We need ENERGETIC help in the yard, mainly splitting firewood. There are lots of small jobs, all requiring good strong MUSCLES. We also need help with BUSH REGENERATION because there are weeds that have invaded the rare and endangered hanging s...

I live between a yacht on Sydney Harbour and a house in a tall eucalyptus forest on the mid north coast of NSW, and need some assistance in working on the house and on another yacht. I'm a carpenter who worked with National Parks and Wildlife for 25 years before retiring, and live with a small dog Billy. I've had many helpers come stay over the last few years and have been lucky to have so many interesting travellers stay. My yacht, is currently on the hard at Whoota, where we are renovating her while helping with work on her. I often take helpers out sailing to see the magnificent Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House but this is not possible while she is being worked on. Yet, I hope to invite helpers out when she is back in the water. The house is located in Whoota, near Forster. It is surrounded by forest and located a 10 minute drive from pristine beaches, lakes, and bushwalks. There a lots of dolphins to see and beautiful areas to explore. The work we are doing on the house ...

I live in the little picturesque hamlet of Stanley is just a 10 minute drive from Historic Beechworth. North East Victoria. It’s approx 3&1/2 hours drive north of Melbourne. I need helpxers to provide assistance with lifting heavy items to remove clutter and take to the tip, also some cleaning, gardening, wood chopping and plastering. I am open to taking a couple and there is a self-contained cabin with a double loft bed. (see photo). Although I’ve listed ‘accommodation only’, I will cook and provide some meals when I can. I would like to practice my beginner Italian language skills. I love being a HelpX host! It is so much fun to meet people from other places and other cultures. I have met some of the most wonderful people, some who are now life-long friends. Previously I lived in North Sydney, I then moved to Manly Beach. And now I’ve bought a house in the Victorian High Country.

We have downsized from our farm in Kuranda to a beautiful and conveniently located property in Cairns, proving that tropical sanctuaries in Far North QLD can be found if you do your research. Our home is 15mins in 3 directions from the Cairns international and domestic airports, the Cairns Northern beaches and the Cairns CBD. The relaxed atmosphere is nurtured by its mountainside aspect providing a natural observatory of the surrounding Cairns mountain ranges, Pacific Ocean and exposure to south easterly breezes. We are also located in close proximity to the Barron River, Crystal Cascades and a cycleway that stretches North and South, as well as conveniences such as a pub and supermarkets. You can enjoy our salt water pool, baby grand piano and explore using our bicycles. We require assistance in the garden including weeding, trimming, mulching, garden bed preparation, veggie growing and other home projects. No smoking on property.

We live on a 5 acre hobby farm in the beautiful Huon Valley, Southern Tasmania. Our family consists of three young adult children (two live at home), two horses, many chickens, ducks, geese, goats and two gorgeous dogs. We grow organic vegetables and breed heritage chickens in an attempt to be more sustainable. Jobs involve general gardening, helping with the animals and housekeeping. If you would like a Tassie small farm experience message us with some details of the work you have previously done. We have separate accommodation, with a bathroom. All our HelpXers have loved working and living with us and I hope you will too (please remember Tassie is a cold place in winter). There are many areas of natural beauty in Southern Tasmania which are all fairly close to us. For example, the Hartz mountains, Hastings Caves and the Tahune Airwalk. We live close to a sleepy village called Cygnet and Hobart is only a 40min drive away. (Unfortunately we can't approve 2nd year visas)

Hi everybody, I'm Carl. I own and manage a hobby farm, airbnb and camping area. I'm currently looking for someone/people to help with yard maintenance and landscaping for about 4 hours a day in exchange for food and accommodation; open to negotiation. This is a 3 acre hobby farm and it's a place to work and learn and have fun. At the moment I can accommodate 2 people in a self contained caravan which is already set up on site with a bush bathroom and shower. Or you can camp on site. It's time to do some gardening, planting and weeding. I also need someone to do general day to day stuff, like cleaning, feeding the animals, etc. And I need people with building skills and/or want to learn building skills, there's a job for everyone, depending what you want. Also I need to finish the sun room. I'm near Maclean, halfway between Byron Bay and Coffs Harbour. TOWN, RIVER and BEACHES are only 10mins away. It's a quiet area, bush and Kangaroos at the back door. We have World Heritage Rain...

We are near the Shoalwater Marine Park and Penguin Island 40mins from Perth city centre. Very close to public transport, cafes and library. Ideal for beach walking, diving, swimming, cycling, fishing, sailing and windsurfing (beach is 60 metres away). Accommodation would take form of a fully insulated cute tiny garden room with access to undercover cooking area and bathroom. IT is small so please See photos. On week days we are usually working it Perth so we cant provide meals, but a well-stocked supermarket is 200 metres away. We average 2/3 hours a day painting, plumbing gardening and other repairs and can negotiate best time to do that, for example maybe it’s more convenient to do two longer days during the week. Free coffee, tea and a simple breakfast (i.e. Cereal, toast) usually available. When you email please let us know when you plan to get to Perth and how you are travelling (flying in, driving or bus etc.). If you are already in Perth, where you are staying and how long yo...

Looking for help with the garden and the house, this will take up 2h/day. I live in Thurgoona, which is a suburb of Albury. There is unlimited internet, you will have your own room. This helpx placement would suit a fit single traveler with own transport who can work unsupervised. Would prefer a male helper with references and own initiative, non-smoker. All the heavy work is done now and it is mainly maintenance, mostly weeding and tidying up. I am a dual citizen with German heritage. I work part-time from home and part -time outside of the house. Albury is on the main highway between Sydney and Melbourne, about 6-7h from Sydney and about 4h from Melbourne. It is a nice country town with cafes and all shops etc., Saturday night life, cinema etc. There is the weir for swimming, some nice towns to visit in the mountains, such as Bright, Mt Beauty and Falls Creek. There are also a few areas with famous wineries around Rutherglen, the King Valley etc. Thanks.

We have downsized from our farm in Kuranda to a beautiful and conveniently located property in Cairns, proving that tropical sanctuaries in Far North QLD can be found if you do your research. Our home is 15mins in 3 directions from the Cairns international and domestic airports, the Cairns Northern beaches and the Cairns CBD. The relaxed atmosphere is nurtured by its mountainside aspect providing a natural observatory of the surrounding Cairns mountain ranges, Pacific Ocean and exposure to south easterly breezes. We are also located in close proximity to the Barron River, Crystal Cascades and a cycleway that stretches North and South, as well as conveniences such as a pub and supermarkets. You can enjoy our salt water pool, baby grand piano and explore using our bicycles.

We live on a 5 acre hobby farm in the beautiful Huon Valley, Southern Tasmania. Our family consists of three young adult children (two live at home), two horses, many chickens, ducks, geese, goats and two gorgeous dogs. We grow organic vegetables and breed heritage chickens in an attempt to be more sustainable. Jobs involve general gardening, helping with the animals and housekeeping. If you would like a Tassie small farm experience message us with some details of the work you have previously done. We have separate accommodation, with a bathroom. All our HelpXers have loved working and living with us and I hope you will too (please remember Tassie is a cold place in winter). There are many areas of natural beauty in Southern Tasmania which are all fairly close to us. For example, the Hartz mountains, Hastings Caves and the Tahune Airwalk. We live close to a sleepy village called Cygnet and Hobart is only a 40min drive away. (Unfortunately we can't approve 2nd year visas)

Hello Helpers ! I am seeking 1 or 2 Helpers, preferably a couple. I live in a gorgeous, creative , alternative town about 3 hours south of Perth. I live on a community next to the Forrest surrounded by hills and farmland. There’s plenty of wildlife and the views are amazing ! I live about 2 kilometres out of town, Balingup is small but has interesting shops and good coffee. I need help with a garden tidy up,culvert clean ( I have a powered water gun ), house clean, painting, and cooking of basic meals, I have a veggie heavy diet, and eat healthily but with delicious treats ice cream, chocolate etc. I ask for 5 hours a day Monday to Friday with weekends off in exchange for all food and accommodation. The first 2 pics are your double room with the view from your room. So you don’t get confused …some of the reviews are from when I lived in Fremantle. I look forward to hearing from you 🙂 Thanks Julia.
