    Work never stops on our farm. We have many projects that we want to realize and can always use an extra hand. All kinds of technical skills are an advantage, but not a must. We choose the work according to your skills. We have everything from simple tasks (such as cooking food, pulling weeds, mowing the lawn, mucking out the horse paddocks or painting the garden fence) to sawing and splitting wood and building a garden fence right up to renovating a guest hut. So you see, there's plenty to do here! ;)

    Example of routine task:
    - Feeding animals
    - go for a walk with the dogs
    - Muck out the horse paddock
    - Get wood
    - Help with cooking

Du siehst also, es gibt hier genug zu tun! ;)

    - Tiere füttern
    - mit den Hunden spazieren gehen
    - Pferdekoppel abmisten
    - Holz holen
