Description
Hello world!
First, we are looking for a person/or couple who is staying with us doing daily farm chores.and/or household stuff.
We always need people to help us to renovate the stable and some other rooms and to fix things.
Anna is also happy if someone helps in/around the house and children :-)
Basically, we need extra family members (or people treated as family) who live and work with us :-D
Also, there is daily work with animals...- we are looking for someone who can Feed the animals at least once a day (about 3-4 hours of work) - anybody can learn it! :-)
We are a young family (Leonhard and Anna) with 3 kids (born 2019 &2021 &2024) who are renovating a big farmhouse and want to establish a lot of new things on the farm.
At the moment we run the farm only with agriculture, cultivating different crops, and fattening pigs. In the future we also like to have pigs outdoor and have a few other plans. Furthermore we are going to have a permaculture based vegetable garden. Since Leonhard loves the combination of forest and agriculture we’d like to try some areas with agroforestry systems.
Families are welcome too!!!

Help
We’d like you to help us with our daily work. It depends what you like/can/want to do – since there is always too much work in and around the house and stables. Of course we are happy if you also have fun with our kids. Most work also depends on the season and on our progress of the projects.

Accommodation
You are gonna have your own small room and shared kitchen/bathroom etc. It would be nice if we can eat together for lunch and evening. We grow and feed a lot of the food ourselves or buy it from local farms. Please do not smoke in/on/around the farm.
What else ...
We live very close to awesome nature but city life is also not far away and easy to reach by train . By train you can even reach big cities (Salzburg 45min, Vienna 2 hours). The Salzkammergut with all its beauty is joust out the door with pretty lakes and great hikes. For example the Traunsee is only a 30min bike ride away. We can provide bicycles.

Theo is already staying on our farm since 8 months :-D Even though he didn't have a lot of handy skills at the beginning as a city boy, it's hard to think to run the farm and daily life without him! Theo learned a lot, takes sometimes the responsibity of feeding all the… read more
