    Description

    Hi we are Swedish / German family living on a small farm in the heart of Sweden. We love animals, nature and small scale organic farming. On the property live 5 horses, sheep, chickens, cats, 1 dog and me, Anna, Hauke( my husband ) and our 2 children Liora 7 and Vidar 9.
    Now in spring/ summer we need help with wood, hay harvest, gardening and the animals.
    We live in a small beautiful village, Molkom close to Karlstad.

    At our house you can learn a lot about small scale farming and animalcare. My husband and the children speak German/ english and I speak Swedish / english. I am also a ridingteacher and yogateacher. We thought the idea of hosting people is a good experience for us and grate for the kids to meet people from other countries, and we can also use an extra hand with things around the farm.
