Off-farm income on your own terms

Work that fits around the farm, from home, for people in your own district.

If that's you, here it is straight: what the work actually involves, what it pays, what it costs to set up, and how to start — from someone running the same business, part-time, in regional Tasmania.

1. Your own income stream

Not tied to the season, the market or the rainfall.

2. Fits around farm and family

Schedule clients in the quiet hours and scale back at harvest.

3. Serve the neighbours

Rural areas are crying out for elder care and disability support.

4. Turn household skills into revenue

Transport, meals, household help, social visits.

5. An honest model for country life

No city overheads, no commute, no workplace politics.

Where to go next

Being straight with you. The hourly figures on this page are the billing rates from the official NDIS Pricing Schedule — the most that can be charged for that support. They're gross revenue, not take-home. Insurance, tax, super, travel and your own time all come out of it. And the income examples are Cathy's real numbers, not a promise about yours.
