Descripción
We are a family of six, 2 adults and 4 children. We live on a small farm in the middle of the forest. On the farm we keep sheep, horses, rabbits, cats, bees and a dog. We grow some vegetables with the aim to be self sufficient. We, Markus and Amanda work mainly with building and repairing traditional log houses. The kids are 15, 11, 6 and 2 years old and we spend a lot of time with them, riding, swimming and working out. We also enjoy playing music, cooking and do a LOT with renovating and build things on the farm.

Our village was created in the 70s by a bunch of hippies. There are a lot of interesting people and buildings here and amazing nature with the river a hundred meters from our house. Nearby is the village of Näsåker, it’s also a fantastic place for meeting people and experience the nature of the north. If you have your own car there is also a lot of other nature experiences in the area such as Edsele quarts-mine, Meåfors goatfarm and so on.

If you are interested in horses it is possible for you to try out riding and helping with our ardenner.

Ayuda
The tasks on the farm vary depending on season and your skills/experience/interests. In the spring we need help with fencing, preparing the garden, chopping and storing wood, cleaning for animals and so on. In the summer the need for taking care of the fields, weed picking and preparing for winter is big and we also build and renovate during summer. Autumn work is mostly storing, butchering, closing the gardens and also a lot of going into the forest and picking berries. We collect around 100 kg of blueberries and lingonberries every year.
We are very flexible, communication is key :)

Algo más...
We cook mostly vegetarian food but also have meat on our menu.

We live in the forest 30 min from nearest food store/society. We can of course help giving you a ride sometimes but it’s good if you like to spend time in nature!
