After 3 years our tennant has moved out after buying his own land.

Our 2 bedroom cottage is available on our property in Upper Hutt.

It would suit a single person or a couple, perhaps moving home needing somewhere to live while they find a home and make a life. Or you want to try living of the land for a while, see what its like.

Its a super tranquil place, you can feed the chickens and garded as much as you like. Grow your own food, take from the orchard. » Read more

Hi Daryl here,

Hi,

Our tenant Matt King, is of to the tsunami stricken islands to help build temporary accommodation for those that lost their homes. Nice one Matt.

So his house will be empty and we were wondering if any one would like to come and live here on our permaculture property while he is away. He aims to be back for new years.

The house is furnished. 1 or to people. Free internet and eggs.

Rent is $200 a week and subsidised power. » Read more

Hi,

We have somehow managed to purchase a 2 acre property at the begining of the Akatarawa road in Upper Hutt.

The property, while allready provides some produce is to be transformed into a permaculture example property and eventually an education center for the hutt valley.

The oppertunity that stands is that there is a second dwelling on the property, a 2 bedroom flat. It has its own wood burner and is tidy and we are willing to ecofy it as the property develops. » Read more

Every time I do a Q and A after a college lecture, somebody says (with a fanfare of indignation) — so as to reveal their own brilliance in contrast to my foolishness — “You haven’t said anything about overpopulation!” » Read more

There is in the making a book and dvd list on this web site.

I ask for people with some time and passion on their hands to help poulate it.

What I have been doing is finding the books on www.fishpond.co.nz and then copying and pasting the info into the book list. For the book image, right click on the image and choose save image location, then in the book list, click browse, then right click paste where it is asking for the file name. Works for me.

Big thanks for anyone putting in some time to initially populate the list.

Find the list here » Read more
