Informationen

Beschreibung
Our farm is a CSA (community supported agriculture). We produce veggies for our 30 participating families living n the nearby town of Sibiu. Also we sell on the weekly farmers market. We are a dutch couple, happily landed in Transylvania.

We are mainly self supporting and enjoy having guests and helpers. There still is a lot to develop. We plan to build a woodshed this summer and a summerkitchen. Our raspberry and blackcurrant plantations need attention too.

From our yard you can see the magnificent Carpathians, we are quite close to Transfagarasian highway. The village is quiet and peaceful. A stream flows at our doorstep. You can make wonderful hikes in your free time and meet our nice villagers.

Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
You can learn a lot about growing vegetables and berries. My husband is a birdwatcher, you can learn a lot from him and he enjoys company hiking in the forest, searching for eagles nests. As we often have more volunteers, they can practice cultural exchange by conversating, or cooking.
Arbeit
We have a farm, not a project :), so sometimes it is hard work, for example when we make hay or weed our vegetables in the summer heat. In general we need positive, healthy volunteers. Sense of humour, independance and creativity are important to us.

I stayed in Sarata for two weeks end of september and it was the best first Work Away experience I could have wished for!

Vom Workawayer (Sabah & Yahya) für Host

We loved our stay with Agnes and Jan. We helped with sowing seeds, painting trees and prepared their beds ready for the seedlings. We had many great conversations over coffee and lunch and enjoyed the quiet village life, with a fantastic view over the Carpathian Mountains. They met all our needs as hosts and went above and beyond - even… read more

Vom Workawayer (Jami) für Host

I spent two weeks at the farm with Agnes and Jan in August of 2017. They are wonderful hosts and are so willing to learn from their guests and share their knowledge. I helped gather vegetables and prepare for the annual raspberry festival.
Please use your day off to go into the mountains. They are so beautiful.
If you are interested in learning… read more

Vom Workawayer (Christophe) für Host

I spent 2 weeks with Agnes and Jan in their farm and had a very exciting time there. The work in the fields was sometimes difficult because of the heat, but haying and harvesting the vegetables and fruit was a great experience.
I also enjoyed meeting the other volunteers, and of course selling our products at the Sibiu market with Agnes and… read more

Vom Workawayer (Lizzie) für Host

We have just spent 10 marvelous days with Agnes on the farm. The work can be quite challenging and tiresome (e.g. tackling a whole polytunnel of thick weeds), but so long as we began the day at 8am, we were allowed to spread the 5 hours of work as we liked, and it's definitely rewarding! Our favourite job was herding her small flock of sheep down… read more

The chores were hard but really satisfying, especially knowing that all your efforts are paying off to support an organic, sustainable business which… read more
