Vom Workawayer () für Host (Get a glimpse of alternative ...)

Giovanna and I (Róisín) thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Virginia’s place in May 2025. We got to learn so many new skills and we felt welcome from the start.

Virginia is a fantastic host. She was very clear about what she needed from us and tasks were always well-explained. Virginia often did some (or all!) of the task alongside us. We also felt… read more that we had a lot of freedom during the stay. We could divide up tasks between us whatever way we liked, and we had a very open dialogue with Virginia. She did not expect perfection, just that you put in your best effort and that you had a good attitude. Virginia really models this herself as well! Tasks included weeding, mulching, taking care of chickens and cattle, and some organising tasks in the basement. We got to give shots to cows, which we really enjoyed and learned from. We also had the opportunity to learn how to safely use a chainsaw with one of the community members and put that new skill to use. A lot of the tasks included learning at some level, with Virginia herself sharing her techniques and experience for each task. Our personal interests and background were taken into consideration and Virginia was kind to squeeze into our schedule activities that we were interested in. Róisín and I (Giovanna) are pottery enthusiasts and Virginia found time to show us her studio and give us a quick class and demonstration on centering the clay on the wheel.

When we were not working at the farm or in the garden, our time was completely our own. As we love to cook and bake, we spent a lot of time in Virginia’s kitchen making new creations with whatever she had on hand. Virginia was so generous in this regard. We loved sharing meals and baked treats with her and her husband, Mike, at the end of the day. Giovanna and I also spent our free time with other members of the community. We were taken to Charlottesville, to Staunton, to a local waterfall and even on a guided walk of the forest on the farm property. This made us feel really welcome and helped us to get to know much more about the area. We took part in activities happening at the farm too, including poker, a pizza party and a dog river walk and volleyball Wednesdays. All of these activities were so enjoyable and made the workaway really stand out to us as part of our year in the USA.

In only two weeks we had a very rich experience on the farm. Our time at Virginia’s place was full of variety, connection, community and opportunities to learn and develop (both as people and as wannabe farmers!). We recommend it wholeheartedly to any potential workawayer. Thank you again, Virginia and all at the farm!

Roisin and Giovanna were excellent farm guests. They both were enthusiastic, fun to be around, got along well with us and our community members. They helped in many areas - chicken care, barn pen mulching, weeding, planting seeds, transplanting, putting down landscape cloth and out around the house. They both loved to cook and bake, we enjoyed all… read more
