Local farmer Grant welcomes the backpackers and sets them to work. Feathers are soon ruffled and at a local vineyard one of the recruits gets the boot.t.
Off out on a camping trip, the backpackers get stuck in the mud. Emotions run high over a slaughtered goat. And Alfie makes a shock announcement that leaves the group reeling.
Some of the backpackers pick prickly fruit for 10 hours straight. Others do tonnes of chores. But two of the group get flirty. Which does not go unnoticed.
The group head for the local rodeo hoping to pull a cowboy. While Tuesday gets to grips with a tractor, Naomi and Andy have their hands full castrating a sheep.
Only nine backpackers remain. On a wine-tasting experience at a local vineyard some of the backpackers really open up. And Naomi is thrown in at the deep end at the infamous jujube farm.
As their time at the farm comes to an end, romance has blossomed for two of the group. The youngsters pay their respects to fallen soldiers on Anzac Day and bid an emotional farewell.
