Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We build a farm that is based on natural principles working with nature but also a nice beautiful lifestyle. Where past and future can meet. Can be a big eye opener of creation and a cultural experience. You would put some hours of work and get back a lot of enjoyment of the surroundings. Learn how to grow food that is not too consuming but manageable with every day tasks and responsibilities.
Help
We have had a retreat farm for 20 years in a paradise like nature setting . This year will be a bit different and no clients will be coming and staying here. It will be a pause from goals and transformation . So it is an opportunity for one or two people to come and stay in this amazing place and extend harmony and peace within .
I Still want to grow food and the farm needs to be kept up and cared for. A lot of projects and building has been done over the years like a new beautiful log house, three greenhouses . treehouse and much more. The farm is from the 1800 .
I grow with permaculture principle and no dig. Lots to learn and find harmony with this kind of lifestyle. I need help with the basic like kutting grass and watering . Four hours a day five days a week.
Always good organic food . Lake on our property for paddling and swimming . Wood sauna and a good base to take trips to the beautiful island on the coast , Gothenburg and Oslo. We also have an island off grid four hours north of here and a stay there can be possible.
In the fall I will be transitioning to a different place so there will be need for some more advanced skills of building greenhouses etz. Openings for a paid position then. (Driver licence needed)
So for May and June, an open mind , good mood , sense of following up and discipline for outside work ( weeding, watering and kutting grass and some cleaning) is wanted. A good space for someone that want to experience this lifestyle and do some self reflection . We keep the energy high and fun always.Accommodation
A cute guesthouse from 1800. Kitchen and bathroom in the big house close by .
