Description
Here at the farm we try to build the circle of the natural eco system. On 9.000 m² we plant Vegetables and Fruits for our own, friends and neighbors without any chemistry just with the power of nature. We have over 60 animals including Donkeys, Kangaroos, a Dog, Sheeps, Ducks, Goose, Rabbits, Pigs and Chickens, they all walk free around here. So you will have a lot of contact with them and get to know the beautiful carracter of each Animal :-) We are located near Berlin, in Petershagen-Eggersdorf (trainstation is Fredersdorf). We are only 2-3 People here, so we need the whole year some help ;-)

The stay I spent there was so wonderful. He taught me a lot of things like about animals, gardening, and also life! Even if I’m completely new about taking care of animals and gardening, he taught me and give the thing suited on the level that I could do that. It was a great experience, so I recommend working on Leo’s farm!

This is beautiful, welcoming and soothing. I learned so many interesting things and loved spending time with the animals. There are 3 main work areas: feeding and taking care of the animals, gardening (harvesting, planting, cleaning up) and the little farmer's market that takes place 2-3 times a week. The proximity to Berlin is also a great point,… read more
