Help
We have 7 horses and about 30 volounters who works together on activities such as: take care of horses, guide tours and therapy riding programs during the season.

We also have eco hostel Branch, 300 m away from the equestrian club, and we could use your help in these activities- changing sheets, cleaning, washing, ironing, gardening, helping with tourists,..
We would love to have some musician to play guitar, or some other instrument and sing in our small cafe at the our hostel Branch,

Our Branch eco hostel is new, so we hardly have any guests, so we need someone who can create quality profiles and promotion on other websites.

On organic farm we need some help with picking berries during the summer.
