Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! Here’s how we can help you find a backpacker job during your working holiday in NZ

When you are working during your working holiday, the money you earn will go straight into your New Zealand bank account. We can help you set up a NZ bank account if you haven’t already.

Here in the Te Puke area, the best time for a NZ working holiday is in the main Kiwifruit season which is March to June every year, for picking and packing Kiwifruit.

We are often at capacity in these months, so start planning your working holiday now and book in with us.

There are also jobs in the horticulture industry all year round:

• March – June: main kiwifruit season – 1000’s of picking and packing jobs available
• July – Sep: repacking & winter pruning jobs available, minimal packhouse work
• Oct – Dec: summer pruning jobs available, no packhouse work
• Jan – Feb: summer pruning jobs available + fruit thinning, no packhouse work

Here’s how we can help sort you out with a bank account and IRD number before you begin your working holiday in New Zealand

We are outside of Te Puke township and there isn’t a bus service here.

But to get you to work, or the supermarket, we can help you find rides with other guests who are working the same jobs or also getting supplies, groceries or running errands in town.

We also regularly do trips in our van to those locations so we can help.
