Welcome Creative gardeners to the Sapphire Coast of NSW, Wallaga Lake, Australia (2024)

Informationen

• 

  Josephine and Scott live on the Sapphire Coast of NSW, five hours south of Sydney. Our one acre property is on the shoreline of Wallaga Lake a short ride or drive from Bermagui (go Google them). We live on Djiringanj country, 64,000 years old and never ceded by Its First Nation inhabitants.

  Scott is retired after working in project management in Australia and Southeast Asia. I moved from theatre to academia and continue to do some university teaching and research.

  We are creating a garden that is connected to the unfarmed wooded grasslands at the back of our property. It’s what you would call a habitat garden that is now attracting hundreds of birds, kangaroos, echidnas, bandicoots etc. The large fenced off vegetable garden is constantly broken in to by a greedy Wallaby.

  We are project people, some beautiful old garden benches I bought at auction that need painting, trees that need clipping, making a pond and sitting area with a view of the lake and so forth. We are looking for some assistance with the projects. Gardening and/or building skills would be given priority.

  We want you to have a great time in this ancient country. We have kayaks, bikes, maps, pamphlets and loads of ideas for where you can go. We can even show you some amazing sights in the wider surrounds, if you want. It’s a house full of books and magazines. We both love cooking and luckily we live on land and sea that provides an abundance of beautiful food.

  This is an ancient land and culture and we will encourage you to find out about the history.

  We love cooking, we love growing, we love finding out about new vegetables, spices and herbs. I have been learning about and growing local “bush” food and i’m happy to share the little I know.

  I am sixth generation Australian with a convict past. Scott arrived in Australia on a boat from the US. For all its flaws, and there are many, we love this land and are happy to share what we know. We also both love learning about other cultures, other ideas, other ways of seeing the world.

Tasks might include sanding & painting garden furniture, helping us create an in-ground pond for local frogs and birds, building garden boxes, planting and pruning shrubs and trees. We have equipment here and garden boots, hats, gloves and sunscreen, but you will need some workwear. Gardening experience and/or building skills will be important. Propagation skills highly regarded.
