THE PLACE
There are five separate households here. Two of the households share the vege garden which is around 0.2 hectares. Organic since 1973. This was once a biodynamic farm that sold vegetables to whole food stores and a Rudolf Steiner school. Now the owner is retired and the vege garden is grown for household use, simply organic, partly permaculture. We grow the annual consumption of veges.
Quiet place, surrounded by forest, off the main roads. One of the houses was once a trailer, now built into a summer house (one host lives here). One house, once a chicken house, is surrounded by built on rooms and connected to the barn by a green house. The cowshed is converted to an apartment (where the other host lives). There are other houses on the property as well.
I can host one volunteer with some experience with gardening, cooking, cleaning and other kitchen work. You need to be able to work independently. We will share daily house shores as well, especially with food preparation and washing dishes. We'll make some meals together and sometimes you will prepare your own.
Work can be week days or weekends, 5 hours a day, five days a week. There will be time for you to spend on your own as well.
SURROUNDINGS
There are nice small roads and paths in the area for bicycling, and we will also find some opportunities to take trips to some hidden treasures around the island.

Many people like to come to Gotland, this island in the middle of the Baltic sea, for the nature, the light and the history. We can explore some of that.
We are living in the country side, a quite simple lifestyle, being self sustainable on vegetables. We enjoy sharing our experiences of this way of living and growing.
We can meditate together if you're into that.
Plus, very important; experimenting with cooking!
I have traveled the world, into the arts and photography, philosophy and multi-culturalism. We enjoy to discuss different perspectives on life and society.
Many have expressed that they felt such peace here. It's great to be able to share that. Here are some voices from helpers previous years:
"It has been such a precious time...and peaceful... I learned a lot trying new things, with herbs from garden, edible wild plants and many kinds of spices!..."
"Nice and peaceful place... Here you can see, feel an eat plenty nature... suitable for people who wants to learn about vegetable gardening...open minded people... I will come back!"
"I discovered a new way of life..."

Our farm is located 30 km from Visby on the middle of the island of Gotland. From Visby one can take a bus that runs through Roma, then towards Lye. Get off at the turn off to Bjärges where you cn be picked up (unless we arrange it otherwise). It's is 6 km from the bus stop. Fairly frequent bus traffic around the island especially in the summer.
There are nice small roads and paths in the area for bicycling, and we will also find some opportunities to take trips to some hidden treasures around the island.
