Description
We are a couple with grown up children so we gout space to have up to 3 people stay and work with us at our organic farm. I am a cook and my partner is a teacher and landscape engineer.
We work with vegetable production, in greenhouses and outdoor. In the summertime we have tomatoes, egplants, peppers, chillies, beans, mm in our greenhouses and different vegetables in the field.
The organic farm part is in a way commercial and pays a small salary for one of us, and the costs to have guests here. As a volunteer you will not get a monetary payment.
If you come as a workawayer you will not be part of the organic farming, if you dont want. If you prefer, you will help around the house and garden, som construction and building stuff, vegetable production for the house, cook and clean.

We work with production of certified – organic vegetables, and if you stay a little longer you will learn about the processes in this field. In general, we love food here in the house and use a lot of time for cooking daily (Annette is a professional cook).
In periods we do some building stuff where you can learn about this field also.
When we find the time, we take our guests for tours in the nature around Kerteminde, for a sail ride in the summer or for a concert in Odense in the weekend.
