If you stay with us, you are not just a hard working employee, you are a guest of the family. It is important to us, that you have a nice stay here, and we would love to learn about your home and culture. We will show you around our part of the country when time allows it, and well tell you where its nice to go and explore on your own, if you'd like.
We are a small scale organic farm (3,5ha). It is run as a part time self-sufficiency project, where we try to find our own little niche in profitable farming. We've had sheep, pigs, geese, ducks, rabbits and a flock of free range chickens. Right now we have our most prominent resident, the cat Rene Dif, and chickens. Soon we'll have some ducks and geese.
In the spring of 2018 we have been traveling as workaway'ers ourselves. Gathering experience and inspiration for new projects on our farm. That means a lot of exciting work ahead. We plan to put a lot of energy into the vegetable garden. Handling firewood and general maintenance and updating the buildings and garden will, as always, be important.
Another huge project for 2019 will be our B&B housewagon. When complete, our workaway guests will have a fantastic place to stay.
Please note, that until the wagon is complete, workaway guests will sleep in a "camplet" (Tentwagon).
Bathroom is shared with our family. You are welcome to join us for three daily meals.
We wish to experiment with poly dome and tunnel.

Animal care
We are in most ways a typical danish family. We used to live in the city, but decided to move to the countryside to raise our kids sorrounded by nature and animals. To show them where their food comes from and help them appreciate nature as we do. We hope to share our lives with interesting people from arround the world, and teach our kids (and ourselves) that people have diffrent customs and look and speak different around the world.
As we both work full-time jobs and raise our 3 fantastic kids the list of farm projects is long and all kinds of assistance is needed.
For example:
Basic carpentry
Machine maintenance (mainly Ferguson TEA20 and equipment)
Vegetablegarden work
Feeding animals
Slaughtering small size animals
Fencing
Cooking
Wood cleaving
Field work
Electrics
Projects will be asigned according to skills and in agreement.
More will be added. No specific skills needed

One of our highest prioritiesed projects is the renovation of a housewagon. Until it is finished our guests will be sleeping in a Camp-let. Guests will of course have access to our home while here.
Meals can be with our family or selfmade
We are in the heart of Vendsyssel - the northernmost part of jutland and Denmark. By car there is about a 30-45 min drive to almost anywhere in the region. For example some of the most popular beaches in the region, as well as Aalborg City. We will be happy to suggest sights according to your interests.
