Volunteer in Norway at a farm centre.
Pays: Norvège
Last Activity: 05.14.2012
Description
The farm has not been in use for several years. Activities started again in spring of 2010. We have begun cultivating herbes/vegetables on a small scale and plan to expand gradually. We also have several breeds of chicken, ducks, geese, goats, sheeps and turkey roaming the farm freely. Work on the farm is very varied and includes; Caring for animals, clearing pastures, building and repairing fences, vegetable and herb gardening, repair of farm buildings, boats, fishing etc. The farm living house is newly renovated, with 5 bedrooms, two bathrooms, communal kitchen and living room. The main house also features a sauna and hobby room. In addition we sustain ourselves by fishing from rowboat, freediving for mussels/scallops and spearfishing. We offer several courses based on outdoor activities. Among these are archery, finding food in nature/self sustainability, free-diving, sailing and sea kayaking. In the future we also wish to establish our farm as a centre for permaculture.

I had a wonderful time here- Borje is a lovely and generous host with a wonderful family and community. The area is amazing, work is interesting and varied, and there are opportunities for lots of fun extra activities like freediving, hiking, kayaking, and bowshooting. Work hours might not always be exactly set, but he always makes sure you do not more
By working on Børje's farm we learned a lot: Once more we noticed, that some steps 'back' to the nature and simple living connect you with your body and soul. We were surrounded by stunning, peaceful landscapes including many possibilities like boat driving, swimming and diving - and Børje generously provides you with everything you need! In more
