    Description

    We live on the beautiful island Møn, in the countryside near to open fields, the ocean and the forrest. 1h 15 minutes from the capital Copenhagen, you can go here by public transport. On this amazing platform we are creating a retreat setting, where we invite guests to take a step back from the normal hectic life. We aspire to create a living context, which invites people to lean into the deeper parts of themselves, thus during the Summer months, many people come to the house every day.

    We got the farm in September 2021. The farm is from 1861 and we have just finished indoor renovating the main house with almost only natural materials like clay and kalk. There are still many opportunities to go creative or practical here because we have much land, many stables and a lovely garden.

    So if you like meaningful, creative and sometimes physical work, sometimes with kids hanging around sometimes not, and also appreciate time and space for your own in nature then we might be a match!

    We are very flexible regarding your work schedule and tasks, and we aspire to find a good balance in all of it for all of us - we love to have people here that enjoys nature, like to have a good combination of time together and time alone. You are also very welcome as a couple.

    We have two outside camping wagons, which will form your home when you stay during summertime.We always try to create community for the workawayers staying with us. We also welcome couples. We will fill up the fridge with things you like so you can cook together with the other workawayers. Sometimes we also cook and eat all together 🌱

    In April 2024 we would like to gather a team of 5-8 workawayers to make a team effort making ready for summer, planting the garden and building an outdoor shower and an outdoor kitchen.

    From May to October there will be 2-4 workawayers at the same time and we are looking for the right ones to come and stay with us. Feel free to ask us about availability and the time you would like to be here.


    About us:
    Anna, 38 years old - will be your hosts. I live with our kids on the farm. Anna loves to create communities, and has done so all of her life both privately and as a career.

    We are looking for committed, independent and motivated people with practical skills like carpentry and gardening (permaculture) who will help us with the daily work in the house and garden and other important tasks.

    Our home is an old farmhouse with large gardens, so there are always things to improve, repair or add. This means that you can also come up with ideas or find solutions to the challenges that may arise.

    Your tasks might include painting with natural paint, woodwork, refinishing furniture, gardening/landscaping, construction projects, stone and cement work, remove waste, taking down old buildings, cutting firewood, repair bicycles and garden machines, pick fruit and berries and cleaning. If you enjoy cooking, you are also welcome to prepare meals or come up with what you like, we are very open minded :-).

    In the summer-period (may-sept) the accommodation for workawayers can also be a tent or caravan in the garden if you are into that. We provide tent/caravan.

    We expect 5 hours help 5 days per week or 25 hours pr. Week. The work is usually from Monday to Friday and then you have Saturday and Sunday off. But sometimes we need help on the weekends and then you take time off on 2 weekdays instead.
