Description
We are a family of four trying to provide for ourselves by organic gardening. We have a big garden area with a lot of different trees and crop fields - including animals (chickens). As a workawayer, you will help us with garden works, harvesting and caring for our animals. We have a fairly laid back attitude regarding your working hours - if you need to explore the region or just need time for yourself, we are flexible with the time you work for us. We believe that the best way to learn about another country, is to witness the everyday local life - so we will include you temporarily in our family:) Since we have a dog, it is important to us that you are an animal lover.
