This is a friendly and relaxing Aussie family farm experience who enjoy hosting outgoing travellers who would like to live with a aussie family but have your own private space too. We are located just about in the middle of Brisbane and the Whitsundays, near Agnes waters but just off the main hwy so we can even offer short stays to break your journey along the coast. We will supply you with all your meals, and private accommodation in exchange for some general help around the farm, 2hrs per day for your own air conditioned room separate from the main house with everything you need including recently upgraded fast unlimited wi-fi. You will have plenty of time to yourself to relax and admire the native wildlife such as kangaroos, wallabies, many different species of birds, and even wild deer. We also have cows, horses , egg laying chickens, ducks and two cats. Attention permaculture enthusiasts! We recently also became interested in permaculture, and we would like some help designing...

Welcome to this very special place by the beach along the East Coast in Tasmania. We live on just over 4 acres of land and are starting to create a garden and plant more native trees on the land. We are also building a labyrinth. Tasks on the land include gardening, wood stacking, tree planting and helping with the creation on our labyrinth. We especially welcome people with an interest in community living. We are part of an online community, see my website link below, which includes a vision of lived community with values of nonviolence and liberation for all. I am also a facilitator of the Work that Reconnects, see website link below. If you have an interest in exploring how we can live on the earth more lightly and in a regenerative way, this is the place to come and explore and have those conversations. We are just starting on this journey on this land and are experimenting in what supports choice, togetherness and flow as an antidote to scarcity, separation and powerlessness...

After 3 years at the property where previous HelpX volunteers have helped us, my partner (Drew) and I (Maia) have just bought an absolutely incredible property right on the river, taking in over mid-May (2026). We're open to having some help from June onwards. We're still on the beautiful Atherton Tablelands in Queensland (popular for its incredible climate, nature, waterfalls, swimming holes, lakes, tourist attractions, etc.) We have our own huge swimming hole and many wallabies live here too. 😍 Our average age is 63 (young at heart!) We have accumulated knowledge and wisdom that we are happy to share. Drew is very practical and his talents are creative and diverse, like designing and building things, solar know-how and ingenious solutions to assorted challenges. My skills are both practical and creative - interior decorating, coaching and mentoring, music and therapeutic sound, photography, writing and creative problem-solving. While helpers sometimes have their own van, we most...

🏡 About My Home We live on a peaceful rural property near Penguin, Tasmania. It's quiet, surrounded by nature, and ideal for someone who enjoys simple country life and fresh air. The house itself is an older farmhouse with a lived-in feel. It's not modern or styled like an Airbnb, but it's comfortable, cosy, and full of character. We also share our home with our indoor rabbits and cats 🐰🐱, so being comfortable around animals is important! Helpers will have: A private bedroom located at the back of the house A separate bathroom (we have our own) Access to laundry facilities Shared kitchen and living areas A calm and relaxed environment The bedroom area is separate from our main living space, so you'll still have your privacy. Occasionally, I may need to access the back area for laundry. There's limited mobile reception at the property, but we do have reliable WiFi. This is not a party house. It suits someone who enjoys a quiet, respectful environment. Self-contained travellers (e.g....

I am an aquatic ecologist who has fortunately been working out of our coastal rain-forest property for 35 years. Driven by strong curiosity, I have recently been developing long-term data sets on the animal life in the forest that surrounds our home, plus on tropical marine fish that are steadily increasing in numbers under the influence of climate change at the nearby very beautiful Seal Rocks area (for details click on my website link below). We have 20 acres with 2 acres cleared and the remainder moist tall forest and rainforest. It is on the coast 3 hrs drive north of Sydney (1.5km from Smiths Lake; 30km south of Forster) See my blog link below to glimpse the accommodation, typical work and fun. We have a 180 squ m vegetable garden at times needing attention which has been enclosed to keep out our friends the wallabies (pademelons), possums, parrots and native bush turkeys. Bush regeneration is another activity as well as assisting in ecological surveys of local rivers when t...

Hello travellers, and a warm welcome to beautiful Olinda - I am Vita and delighted to host you. **Currently seeking Helper/s who can work in the garden or use a chainsaw to cut fire wood. Or a carpenter who can help repair weather damaged external timber windows. Or someone with mechanical experience to service chainsaw and lawn mowers.

****taking bookings November and December 2026**** I have been a Helpx and similar host for 12 years and have really enjoyed meeting, mentoring and sharing my life with so many travellers from every corner of the world. In January 2025, I started a new adventure, moving from Lowden Ridge, my beautiful scenic 100 acre working farm (where i maintained a productive olive grove and also raised cattle, sheep and goats), to a much smaller and tranquil 8 acre hobby farm which I have nicknamed Shady Acres. The new property is set amongst a majestic grove of eucalyptus trees, and is located in Irish Town, just 5 minutes north of the town of Donnybrook. In the last 18 months, with the help of some wonderful backpackers, I have built new fences, new veggie gardens, started a new orchard of fruit and nut trees, built small shelters for the goats and revamped the old chicken coop. I am currently seeking helpers to continuing growing my new farm. Some of the projects planned in the coming mo...

My home is a 6 acre property located 5 minutes walk from Billinudgel town in the northern rivers of NSW. There is a wonderful view to a private valley. There are many native birds on the property. The location is fantastic - 5 minute drive to Ocean Shores and South Golden beaches and shopping centre, 10 minutes to Brunswick Heads, 15 minute drive to Mullumbimby and 20 minute drive to Byron Bay. On the northern side it is a 30 minute drive to Murwillumbah, 25 minutes to Kingscliff and a bit closer to Cabarita & Pottsville - take your pick! There is a very limited bus service with only 2 buses per day. You will definitely need to have a car to explore the local area & get around. A single female or couple is preferred. Help is required to clean the main house - vacuuming, dusting, windows, kitchen and bathrooms as well as thorough cleaning of kitchen and other cupboards. The gardening involves weeding, pruning & mulching. Gardening and/or landscaping skills are a definite advantage ...

Welcome! I am Fern. I live together with my 4 year old daughter on our small, off grid and very humble farmlet in Guildford, Central Victoria. Guildford is home to one of Victoria's largest river red gums. It is over 500 years old. It's a very small town with only a general store, primary school & pub, half way between Castlemaine & Daylesford. We have been on this land for 1 and a half years & have started using permaculture principals & design. So far, we have completed the fence line, (to keep the rabbits out) & joyously have begun some planting both in the food forest, cottage garden & in the veggie patch. We always have seeds growing in our tiny greenhouse. Fern has a background in florist & plant nursery work and has completed a PDC. Currently a full time Mama, her interest lie in walking softly on this earth, while the little one loves watching the abundant birdlife in our vast open skies! I love kirtan and am busy immersing ourselves in the local community. There maybe a proj...

Looking for helpers NOW. Located in Melbourne's Southern eastern suburbs, only 1 hour by train to Melbourne CBD. We have a hobby farm with 2 cows, 2 goats, chickens, dogs, and cats. We are best suited to accommodate a couple or 2 friends travelling together and wanting to stay for 2 weeks or more. Helper accommodation is very neat self contained studio style cottage, with your own King Bed, Lounge, kitchen, bathroom and meals area. We would welcome anyone with any handyman skills etc. General duties include caring for the animals, gardening, mowing, weeding, fence repairs, painting, wood splitting and other odd jobs. We can provide accommodation in exchange for 15 hours per week. We are 5km from the local shops and public transport, so it is more convenient if you have your own vehicle. Many of our helpers also find paid work nearby and earn some money while staying with us. We are also offering some $$ payment for house and pet sitting in Feb and March 2027. Contact me for details ...

This is an idyllic location 2km out of Mullumbimby (Alternative culture.. population 5,000.. close to Byron Bay... plenty of shops). I live in an old house which is 2 Queensland style structures, interconnected by verandas with a good sized pool (see photos). There is bus transport to beaches at Byron Bay (20 mins) and Brunswick Heads. (10 mins). This area is known for alternative life style and free thinking. My name is Derek Spice (AKA Dee to friends).

PLEASE READ MY HELPX GUEST REVIEWS. I have been in radical action to release Julian Assange (now achieved) and to stop the war in Gaza. Also to revolutionize mainstr...

Hi there :) We are both young marine biologists living in a beautiful modular garden block surrounded by forest and animals. We live at the end of a small street in Picnic Bay, a few blocks from the beach and the bush. Its a beautiful part of the Island - quiet and surrounded by greenery. Our garden is big and always in need of help, ranging from general maintenance to larger jobs like painting and landscaping. We also have just built two wooden log cabins in the back yard and are currently fitting them out so if you are handy that's a huge plus! We are happy with either a single person or a couple. Helpers will stay in the wooden cabins with electricity and water separate from the main house. This has a double bed, chairs, desk etc. It is very beautiful. We have an extremely friendly dog and some chickens and ducks. We are happy to show people around the island and talk all things marine science and Great Barrier Reef.

Hi Lovely Help Exchangers Looking for a Sydney host early in November 2026? Need helpers to be here on the 9th and days around then. I’m looking for two people travelling together for 5 to 7 days. Can be a couple or two friends. Staying here you can walk to surf beaches, wetlands and a lake. Sometimes you can hear the surf from the house. I usually have several projects to do, along with tidying and gardening. Since I’m short and have limits on what I can do after having both knees replaced last year, jobs that involve reaching high places or need two people are a priority. The projects depend on my priorities, your skills and how long you stay. You will get a task list. I currently need everything fixed up and beautifully prepared for home swap guests. Tasks might include: • Weeding and pruning the garden • Improving the lawn – aerating, watering and seeding • General handy jobs such as drilling to install shelves, preparing site for new shed, installing blinds • Spring cleaning...

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 ...

Welcome to this very special place by the beach along the East Coast in Tasmania. We live on just over 4 acres of land and are starting to create a garden and plant more native trees on the land. We are also building a labyrinth. Tasks on the land include gardening, wood stacking, tree planting and helping with the creation on our labyrinth. We especially welcome people with an interest in community living. We are part of an online community, see my website link below, which includes a vision of lived community with values of nonviolence and liberation for all. I am also a facilitator of the Work that Reconnects, see website link below. If you have an interest in exploring how we can live on the earth more lightly and in a regenerative way, this is the place to come and explore and have those conversations. We are just starting on this journey on this land and are experimenting in what supports choice, togetherness and flow as an antidote to scarcity, separation and powerlessness...

After 3 years at the property where previous HelpX volunteers have helped us, my partner (Drew) and I (Maia) have just bought an absolutely incredible property right on the river, taking in over mid-May (2026). We're open to having some help from June onwards. We're still on the beautiful Atherton Tablelands in Queensland (popular for its incredible climate, nature, waterfalls, swimming holes, lakes, tourist attractions, etc.) We have our own huge swimming hole and many wallabies live here too. 😍 Our average age is 63 (young at heart!) We have accumulated knowledge and wisdom that we are happy to share. Drew is very practical and his talents are creative and diverse, like designing and building things, solar know-how and ingenious solutions to assorted challenges. My skills are both practical and creative - interior decorating, coaching and mentoring, music and therapeutic sound, photography, writing and creative problem-solving. While helpers sometimes have their own van, we most...

🏡 About My Home We live on a peaceful rural property near Penguin, Tasmania. It's quiet, surrounded by nature, and ideal for someone who enjoys simple country life and fresh air. The house itself is an older farmhouse with a lived-in feel. It's not modern or styled like an Airbnb, but it's comfortable, cosy, and full of character. We also share our home with our indoor rabbits and cats 🐰🐱, so being comfortable around animals is important! Helpers will have: A private bedroom located at the back of the house A separate bathroom (we have our own) Access to laundry facilities Shared kitchen and living areas A calm and relaxed environment The bedroom area is separate from our main living space, so you'll still have your privacy. Occasionally, I may need to access the back area for laundry. There's limited mobile reception at the property, but we do have reliable WiFi. This is not a party house. It suits someone who enjoys a quiet, respectful environment. Self-contained travellers (e.g....

I am an aquatic ecologist who has fortunately been working out of our coastal rain-forest property for 35 years. Driven by strong curiosity, I have recently been developing long-term data sets on the animal life in the forest that surrounds our home, plus on tropical marine fish that are steadily increasing in numbers under the influence of climate change at the nearby very beautiful Seal Rocks area (for details click on my website link below). We have 20 acres with 2 acres cleared and the remainder moist tall forest and rainforest. It is on the coast 3 hrs drive north of Sydney (1.5km from Smiths Lake; 30km south of Forster) See my blog link below to glimpse the accommodation, typical work and fun. We have a 180 squ m vegetable garden at times needing attention which has been enclosed to keep out our friends the wallabies (pademelons), possums, parrots and native bush turkeys. Bush regeneration is another activity as well as assisting in ecological surveys of local rivers when t...

Hello travellers, and a warm welcome to beautiful Olinda - I am Vita and delighted to host you. **Currently seeking Helper/s who can work in the garden or use a chainsaw to cut fire wood. Or a carpenter who can help repair weather damaged external timber windows. Or someone with mechanical experience to service chainsaw and lawn mowers.

****taking bookings November and December 2026**** I have been a Helpx and similar host for 12 years and have really enjoyed meeting, mentoring and sharing my life with so many travellers from every corner of the world. In January 2025, I started a new adventure, moving from Lowden Ridge, my beautiful scenic 100 acre working farm (where i maintained a productive olive grove and also raised cattle, sheep and goats), to a much smaller and tranquil 8 acre hobby farm which I have nicknamed Shady Acres. The new property is set amongst a majestic grove of eucalyptus trees, and is located in Irish Town, just 5 minutes north of the town of Donnybrook. In the last 18 months, with the help of some wonderful backpackers, I have built new fences, new veggie gardens, started a new orchard of fruit and nut trees, built small shelters for the goats and revamped the old chicken coop. I am currently seeking helpers to continuing growing my new farm. Some of the projects planned in the coming mo...

My home is a 6 acre property located 5 minutes walk from Billinudgel town in the northern rivers of NSW. There is a wonderful view to a private valley. There are many native birds on the property. The location is fantastic - 5 minute drive to Ocean Shores and South Golden beaches and shopping centre, 10 minutes to Brunswick Heads, 15 minute drive to Mullumbimby and 20 minute drive to Byron Bay. On the northern side it is a 30 minute drive to Murwillumbah, 25 minutes to Kingscliff and a bit closer to Cabarita & Pottsville - take your pick!

Welcome! I am Fern. I live together with my 4 year old daughter on our small, off grid and very humble farmlet in Guildford, Central Victoria. Guildford is home to one of Victoria's largest river red gums. It is over 500 years old. It's a very small town with only a general store, primary school & pub, half way between Castlemaine & Daylesford. We have been on this land for 1 and a half years & have started using permaculture principals & design. So far, we have completed the fence line, (to keep the rabbits out) & joyously have begun some planting both in the food forest, cottage garden & in the veggie patch. We always have seeds growing in our tiny greenhouse. Fern has a background in florist & plant nursery work and has completed a PDC. Currently a full time Mama, her interest lie in walking softly on this earth, while the little one loves watching the abundant birdlife in our vast open skies! I love kirtan and am busy immersing ourselves in the local community. There maybe a proj...

Looking for helpers NOW. Located in Melbourne's Southern eastern suburbs, only 1 hour by train to Melbourne CBD. We have a hobby farm with 2 cows, 2 goats, chickens, dogs, and cats. We are best suited to accommodate a couple or 2 friends travelling together and wanting to stay for 2 weeks or more.

There're 2 adorable dogs 🐕‍🦺🐕 in the family, so you must be a dog 🦮 lover. Also 6 chicken 🐓 and 2 ducks 🦆, so we always have fresh eggs 🪺.

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. We like to work with fun 🥳, laughter 😂, music 🎶 and love to see you letting a bit of your craziness out 🤪. Be yourself and join the family... We have had many awesome experiences with travellers so far 😃. Please no...

Hi there :) We are both young marine biologists living in a beautiful modular garden block surrounded by forest and animals. We live at the end of a small street in Picnic Bay, a few blocks from the beach and the bush. Its a beautiful part of the Island - quiet and surrounded by greenery. Our garden is big and always in need of help, ranging from general maintenance to larger jobs like painting and landscaping. We also have just built two wooden log cabins in the back yard and are currently fitting them out so if you are handy that's a huge plus! We are happy with either a single person or a couple. Helpers will stay in the wooden cabins with electricity and water separate from the main house. This has a double bed, chairs, desk etc. It is very beautiful. We have an extremely friendly dog and some chickens and ducks. We are happy to show people around the island and talk all things marine science and Great Barrier Reef. Great snorkeling and giant clam gardens nearby and happy to ...

I am currently looking for helpers, a couple would be great, so you don't get lonely. I live in the beautiful Noosa Shire, 25 minutes drive to some of the best surfing beaches in Australia. I am also close to Lake Cootharaba, which is a very popular sailing, swimming and boating haven. My 5 acre property is neighboured by National Parks providing picturesque hiking, wildlife and bird watching. I live on 5 acres in the bush but close to the wonderful communities of Boreen Point and Pomona. I have a few chooks and lots of bees which keep me busy. There is a swimming pool to cool off on a hot day. I am the Beekeeper, The Bottler and The Marketer so need help in all these duties. I also have a thriving organic garden that needs tending, a large property to maintain, sheds to build, chooks to feed etc, etc. I need help!!!

Hi Lovely Help Exchangers Looking for a Sydney host early in November 2026? Need helpers to be here on the 9th and days around then. I’m looking for two people travelling together for 5 to 7 days. Can be a couple or two friends. Staying here you can walk to surf beaches, wetlands and a lake. Sometimes you can hear the surf from the house. I usually have several projects to do, along with tidying and gardening. Since I’m short and have limits on what I can do after having both knees replaced last year, jobs that involve reaching high places or need two people are a priority. The projects depend on my priorities, your skills and how long you stay. You will get a task list. I currently need everything fixed up and beautifully prepared for home swap guests. Tasks might include: • Weeding and pruning the garden • Improving the lawn – aerating, watering and seeding • General handy jobs such as drilling to install shelves, preparing site for new shed, installing blinds • Spring cleaning...

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 ...
