    Beschreibung

    We live on a small farm just outside Katrineholm. A smaller town 1 hour southwest of Stockholm. It's me Gunvor, my husband Anders and our big dog Bella. She is a Broholmer of almost 3 years. The farm consists of an old soldier's barracks built in the 18th century and our house, built around the turn of the century in 1900, a former day laborer's barracks where those who lived here had to pay the rent by working at Ericsberg Castle. We are very interested in the environment and try to live as ecologically as we can.

    With us you can follow the seasons and learn vegetable growing as a craft and in harmony with nature. You get to spend time with our large sociable dog who likes long walks in the forest. You get to join in and sow, plant potatoes or take care of the harvest and what the forest around us gives depending on the season, for example picking berries and mushrooms. We grow with cover crops and try to promote biological diversity and of course organically in order to be self-sufficient in fruit and vegetables. From what we grow, we usually cook vegetarian food but with a touch of fish. So Swedish home cooking, we look forward to offering you and tasting dishes from your culture.

    We grow fruit and vegetables using cover crops and organic principles. Mostly for own use but also has a small sale of what is left over during the season. You won't be asked to help us with this. You are welcome to help us with the daily chores in our private garden and it can be a little different depending on the season. In the spring it is, for example, sowing, planting potatoes and tidying up the beds. Every year we have some new projects to develop the farm. This year it will be expanding the greenhouse and putting up a game fence. Last year, it was solar cells and irrigation using the sun that were big projects. As part of our ecological thinking, we use urine-separating toilets that can then be used as fertilizer in the flower farms.

    We now wish to accept volunteers for 2024, spring, summer and autumn. We are looking for help with walking the dog, cooking and gardening and simple carpentry/painting outdoors.

    For us, a volunteer is curious, and does not hesitate to ask if there are any ambiguities. Preferably someone who is used to dogs and gardening. But it is not a "must".

    Welcome to send a request and we prefer you to stay 2 weeks or longer. We look forward to reading your wishes and hopefully we will meet this year.

    Meeting people who speak other languages is always edifying. English is the language that I speak almost fluently but always good to practice more. I have only studied German for 3 years, so I can be seen as a beginner there.

    It is a beautiful nature to wander around. The Sörmlandsleden trail with over 1000km of hiking trails passes approx. 800m from the farm.

    3km from us is Jättorp. One of Sörmland's finest golf courses.

    One of Sweden's most beautiful baroque castles, Ericsberg, is just under 10 km away. There is a castle café open during the summer and a beautiful park to visit.

    We can lend you a bicycle so that it is easier to get around the surroundings. The nearest town is Katrineholm (7km). There is a railway that can take you to Stockholm in 1 hour or Gothenburg in 2.5 hours.

    In Katrineholm there are shops, a library, several restaurants, cafes and natural baths.
    At Stora Djulö, musical performances are often offered at the café. Stora Djulö is a manor located by Djulösjön south of Katrineholm. The current main building dates from the 1720s, but already in 1334 the farm is mentioned as Djula and belonged to Vårfruberga monastery near Strängnäs. During the 17th century the property was called Väster-Djula and after 1719 the day name was used.
    In Katrineholm there is also the canoe stadium, football arena and tennis court.
