  Beschreibung

  Hello! We are Louise, Tim, Sixten and Juni-Sol. We are having a little farm on an island in south Sweden. On the farm we have horses, sheeps, hens, cats and a dog. We grow our vegetables, berries and fruit at the farm. We want our farm to be a place for people from all over the world to gather and share our passion for animals, nature, climate and health. Our farm is not a business it’s a familyfarm.
  The food you get is from the garden and eggs from the hens. We eat most veggies but Tim eat meat as well.
  In the beginning of the season there is not super much to eat in the garden so then more food come from the grocery store.

  Arbeit

  WINTER
  We would like help with feeding the animals. We got an old horse (31 years) on the farm that need wet food (like a porridge with haypellets) 4 times per day.
  We got two small children 2,5 year and 7 months so help inside the house with dish, laundry and cleaning the house, and cook food is also a big help for us.
  
  What we'd like help with is also taking care of the animals and the farm. We are not selling anything from the farm.
  
  We would love have someone here for at least 1 month and if you can stay longer that’s perfect. Feel free to write even if you cannot stay that long. Maybe it can work anyway. It’s because it take time to learn all the routines.
  If you are used to horses that’s amazing, but it can work even without experience. The horses are gentle.
  Some days in December we are thinking of going on short family trips over the weekends. Then we would need you to be house sitting and take care of the animals.
  
  SUMMER
  It can be tasks like mucking out the stables, clean weed from the garden, bring water to the sheeps.
  But also easier tasks like painting, harvest and repairing stuff.

  Unterkunft

  In winter you would live with us in the house but you got the whole second floor for yourself and our cat Sally is also living upstairs since it’s more calm for her there than downstairs with the children.
  So you must love animals :)

  Was noch ...

  Hasslö is an island that is located in Karlskrona which is south east in Sweden.
  To get here you can take:
  The train straight from Copenhagen airport. Karlskrona is the end destination, and then we pick you up at the train station.
  
  You can also take the ferry (Stena Line) from Gdynia in Poland to Karlskrona.
  There is also one ferry going from Lithuania to Karlshamn which is 40 minute drive from our home.
  
  
  On the island there is a grocerystore that you can take the bike in 10 minutes to go shopping. You can take the bus or boat to town, it takes around 35 min with bus and 25 min with boat.
  The nature around here is fantastic with the Baltic Sea just outside the door and lots of big forests.
  Feel free to borrow our bikes and explore the surroundings.
  
  Since we got little baby Sixten an Juni-Sol we cannot always eat all the meals together with the volunteers. But we want to eat lunch together at least.
  So breakfast and dinner you might eat by yourself. We usually only have one volunteer here unless you come two together. If you think it feels lonely to be in your own company a lot then this place maybe is not the best place for you.
  We have got a lot of couples coming over the years and many of them bring their dogs and they have loved staying here.
