Hello! In 2019 or 2020, I am hoping to work or intern on a farm in New Zealand for the whole growing season. If anyone can refer me to any established sustainable commercial farms using permaculture principles that has or would be interested in hosting a foreign aspiring farmer, I'd appreciate it!

You realise the growing season lasts for 12 months of the year here?

I've got  300 acres of organic certified farmland and about another 300 acres in forest. We don't usually take anyone on but as I'm in the process of establishing an orchard it might possibly work, send me a pm with a lot of details and we'll think about it.
