The figs will be productive this year :-)
This is my very special green gladiolus. The front small garden looking good thanks to Jo and Brad.
Pinot Noir...BIG flowers everywhere :-)
All grass slashed, under-rows weed-killed, 2 sprays done...looking good for this year...
We went up to the National Park today. CJ had not seen snow before so we've gone snow hunting :-) Found a bit
It was hard going @ places, there was water flowing on the path Jo had to negotiate her steps gingerly :-)
Brad visited the Air Walk and later they took pics from the lookout.
On the way home we picked up some sushi from Masaaki's in Geeveston. If you had not tried it yet, you HAVE to :-) and now I'm making a Fustolt Csulok Porkolt, which is a potato dish with smoked hocks.
Here's a short video to let you listen to the bubbling creek. The snow was melting as we walked, creating swift flowing creeks and waterfalls.
To make St Imre more accessible for Helpx guests, here we start a new chapter :-)
No point waffling more about what this blog is about, helpxers are already familiar with this worldwide organisation, so I just start in the middle... :-))
Currently helpers are Jo from UK ,
Chris from UK
CJ from Hong Kong and Brad from Taiwan.
Usually we have only 1 helper but these guys are SOOOOO good that -in addition to regularly booked Chris- Jo returned and CJ and Brad "transferred" to us on high recommendation.
Alanna recently posted some images from her stay with us. Here I share a few:
St Imre Vineyard is a boutique vineyard/winery located in Dover, the Far South region of the Huon Valley, on the Huon Trail.
We have 5 acres planted to Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris and the more hard to find varieties of Ziegerrebe, Baco Noir and Gamay. Our blends of Possum Piss (white) and Tiger Blood (red).
We would like to use this blog as our Helpx information.(The other blog about the vineyard/winery can be found within our webpage: http://stimrevineyard.com.au/)
We are hosts in an organisation called Helpexchange (Helpx). Helpx links travelers with hosts, where you can offer your work (6 hrs/day in our case) in exchange for accommodation and food. As we are a registered farm business, we can sign Second Visa applications for genuine help in the vineyard.
Here you can read about us, follow our progress, ask questions via the "post comments" option or just spend some time...
Thanks for visiting.
