The job
Want to smash out your 88 days, stack some cash and actually love the life you’re living while you do it?
We’re looking for 15 backpackers ready to trade overcrowded hostel life for farm work, tropical FNQ and a close-knit backpacker community where everyone is here doing the same thing — working, earning, doing their days and living for the weekend.
🚜 THE WORK Bananas or Watermelons, harvesting, planting, picking, crop maintenance, shed packing and roles using tractors, utes or ATVs depending on experience. It’s physical, it’s tropical and some days you’ll definitely know you’ve worked for your money. 💪
No experience? No dramas. Training provided.
💰 THE GOOD STUFF 💸 $32.18/hour + super 📅 Eligible work towards your 88 days 🏡 Furnished share-house accommodation 🚐 Transport available 🙌 Training provided 🌏 Backpackers from all over the world 🚗 Got a car? Even better!
🌴 AND THIS IS WHERE HAPPY DAYS IS DIFFERENT…
We are NOT a hostel. Happy Days Tully is a farm-work share-house community. You live in proper furnished homes with other backpackers who are working, earning and ticking off their days right alongside you.
Then the weekend hits. 🔥 Waterfalls. Beaches. Swimming holes. BBQs. Pub nights. House parties. Road trips. Tropical adventures and a small town that genuinely loves having backpackers around.
Come knowing nobody. Find your tribe. Do your days. Save some money. Make ridiculous memories.
You’re not just coming to Tully for a farm job.
You’re coming for your Tully chapter. 🍌🌴
