Informationen

Beschreibung
Our farm of 12 hectars is a Biofarm. Most of our products is selfsufficiency production, only lambs are sold on the market. It's not a profitable farm. We produce electric power and have a natural waste water treatment. Our neighbor is organic too, so we get good milk. Just now I, Lydia, run the farm alone most of the time but get help by my son, who is studying geography in Heidelberg. My other adult children come from time to time together with their families for help. I enjoy the contact with young helpers from everywhere on the globe and until now I hosted more than 250. Be the next!

I spent 15 days in the farm.
Very good meals, pleasant work and good time in the nature.
I came back with more awareness and knowledge than I arrived.
That's the reason why I volunteer when I'm not doing my "normal job".
I've also improved a little my understanding of German (a language that I will continue to learn).
Thanks to Lydia and Tilman

We had a great time with him and we hope he has found his place to live just now. Good, best luck Marius!
