Description
We are a (Serbian/Swiss) family of 4 who arrived in Serbia 10 years ago to create an organic homestead and live sustainable. In the meantime besides fruits & vegetables we also keep cattles, sheeps, goats, pigs, a horse, chicken, rabbits, dogs and cats. Our livestock is grazing the 3ha pastureland and forest around our homestead.
Since our son is partially absent due to studies and from time to time one of us has to travel for works, we happily welcome help from interested and enthusiastic people.
The help consists mainly in ensuring animal welfare (feeding, milking, caring) maintenance around the ranch (fences, mowing, painting) and harvesting fruits and vegetables.
Together we will also make cheese and butter, bake bread, process meat and dry fruits and herbs. If you like you can get get free horse riding lessons.
