Come alongside what is happening here.
BROOMHILL welcomes people who would like to spend time on the
whenua, lend a hand, share knowledge and learn through doing.
There is always something happening - sowing, planting,
harvesting, mulching, composting, tending trees, building soil,
caring for shared spaces or responding to whatever the season is
asking of us.
Our
open stewardship mornings
offer a way to join the everyday work of the gardens and wider
sanctuary. We work alongside one another, sharing knowledge and
discovering what the work itself can teach us. For those living
locally who would like to return regularly, our
Stewardship Roster
offers a way to become part of the ongoing care of BROOMHILL,
with a seasonal harvest share received as part of the exchange.
Throughout the seasons, we also gather for whenua-based
learning, seed exchanges, workshops and shared projects,
creating opportunities to observe, experiment and exchange
knowledge.
For those wishing to live alongside BROOMHILL for a while,
volunteer exchange stays
can be explored through our profiles on WWOOF New Zealand,
Worldpackers and other participating platforms. We also welcome
enquiries about
Stay & Steward
and are exploring
Designed Residencies
- individually shaped opportunities for longer engagement,
purposeful contribution, learning and personal inquiry. Each has
its own rhythm and arrangements, which are best discovered
through conversation.
Each encounter brings something different to the life of
BROOMHILL. Over time, shared experiences can grow into lasting
relationships, greater familiarity with the whenua and a deeper
commitment to the care that sustains this place.
Come with curiosity and discover where your interests meet
what is growing here.
