We bought our little farm about 10 yrs ago, and have always many projects going.
Its great to get some volunteer help with for example; building work, general maintenance, work on the land, draining away water, making firewood, clearing up in the forest, fencing, vegetable garden, garden projects, weeding, cutting grass, stonework, footpaths, taking care of the chickens and sheep, cooking and cleaning ect... The activities depends on the season /weather and the interst/ talent of the workawayer :-)
We have some sheep of an old Norwegian shorttail breed with horns and different colours, very cool guys. A little bunch of happy chickens and two spoiled cats.

Britt and Dag provided me with a fantastic experience on my first workaway. The location was spectacular, with easy access to Bergen and some majestic fjords (although I had my car which offered more flexibility).
