How time fly’s, we end one season and now commencing the next.
The past couple of months has seen a very cold but dry winter, with record temperatures of down as low as -4c And only now as we enter Spring that we endure some much needed rain.
Our season is slowly commencing as the weather warms up. Already we are currently checking in Backpackers from Japan, Germany, Ireland and Holland. On their 88 Day count down for their first year work visa. Work is a little slow at present, but will pick up as the weather improves.
The Maffra Lodge / Backpackers is a small but clean, Hostel, providing comfortable accommodation that is convenient to most working farms in the area. We can further assist you with contacts to farm work.
So if you are thinking of heading to Maffra, East Gippsland, Victoria and require accommodation, please contact us.
Safe Travels.

Dear Greg and Irene,
Hello! I am eagerly hoping to begin my 88 days of farmwork in the next 2/3 weeks and I wondered if you could help me? Are you able to provide work for your guests or do they need to find their own work before coming to stay with you? Any information you can offer regarding farmwork would be greatly appreciated, you guys have been recommended highly to me! Happy to provide CV and cover letter with references!
