About Us
Introducing Hut and Tanya Your Harvest Agri Tour Hosts
Hut and Tanya met in the village of Khao Suan Kwang, Thailand in 2012, married in 2014 and lived in Hervey Bay, Qld for almost 10 years.
They then found a 1.3 acre block in Manyung, a small part of the South Burnett, where they settled into country life with their 2 dogs, 1 duck, 1 rooster and 6 chickens.
They built a home and decided to make their experience of country life, a place for others to enjoy.
They now have an off line, self contained visitors 'shouse' with separate compost toilet and solar shower, plus an additional rumpus room under the main house, with air-con, wifi, books, tv, desk and fold out lounges for extra guests.
You can wander the vegie patch, feed the chickens and ducks, collect the eggs, talk to the sheep and pony, make a fire pit to stay warm, help with the daily jobs or tour the beautiful South Burnett from a lovely base and ideas from your hosts.

Harvest Agri Tours
After moving to Manyung, Tanya participated in the Red Earth Community Foundations Leadership program. During the program, Tanya shared the idea of tours in the South Burnett. With passion for the area, desire for local economic growth, the commitment and collaboration of the diverse farming, artisan and producer community, the Harvest Agri Tours idea began.
