About the room

We have a room available in our 3-bedroom farm cottage on the edge of our working organic market garden. You’ll have your own private room while sharing the kitchen, bathroom, lounge, and other common areas with others who are passionate about food, sustainability, and living close to the land.

This is a communal space that’s sometimes also home to garden trainees, so it suits someone who enjoys connection and shared living, while also appreciating the quiet of the countryside.

Perfect for a single or a couple looking for a welcoming home environment with a mix of farm life, surf culture, and Taranaki’s vibrant food scene.

About the roomies

We supply fresh produce to some of Taranaki’s best restaurants + retail stores. We care deeply about sustainability, healthy soil, and good food.

The farm is just 12 minutes from New Plymouth CBD and close to world-class surf breaks like Fitzroy, Oakura, and Back Beach.

What’s Included

✔ Private room in a shared 3-bedroom cottage ✔ Shared kitchen, bathroom, laundry, lounge + dining area ✔ Living alongside growers and trainees from around the world ✔ Opportunities to enjoy seasonal farm produce ✔ 12 minutes to New Plymouth CBD & close to surf spots.

I found the site to be clear of scams which is very much appreciated since there's so much garbage out there on the web.
