    A Unique Experience in Art & Nature
    We have a creative and sustainable farm located in Nakhon Pathom, Thailand. It was founded by “Joon” , a sculptor who graduated from King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang. After her studies, she honed her ceramic skills at Tao Hong Tai in Ratchaburi and in Nagoya, Japan.

    The heart of our project is a ceramic studio and café where visitors can experience the art of pottery in a peaceful and inspiring environment. The farm is surrounded by nature, offering a relaxing escape from the city and a space to unwind, create, and learn.

    Why You'll Love It Here
    We combine art, nature, and sustainable living. Whether you’re interested in ceramics, farming, or simply enjoying a slow-paced lifestyle, you’ll find this place a perfect retreat. Our farm is a home, a workshop, and a gathering space for like-minded people who appreciate creativity and simplicity.

    Who You’ll Meet
    We are a small but warm community. Joon, the founder, is passionate about ceramics and enjoys sharing her knowledge with visitors. You’ll also meet other locals who help with the farm, café, and studio. Everyone here is welcoming and happy to exchange ideas, skills, and life experiences.

    What You Can Do as a Workawayer
    We welcome volunteers through Workaway to participate in various activities, including:

    Assisting in the ceramic studio – learning pottery, glazing, and firing techniques.
    Helping at the café – making coffee, serving guests, and creating a cozy atmosphere.
    Engaging in farm work – tending plants, caring for animals, and maintaining green spaces.
    Supporting community events – hosting workshops, organizing small art fairs, or sharing your own skills.
    A Place to Learn and Grow
    Volunteering isn’t just about helping out – it’s about learning, creating, and connecting. Whether you're a ceramic enthusiast, a nature lover, or just someone looking for a peaceful yet enriching experience, we invite you to join us and be part of our journey.

    We look forward to meeting you! 😊 🌿🎨

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We believe in the power of sharing stories, skills, and experiences. Our farm is more than just a place to work—it’s a space where different cultures come together to learn, create, and connect.

    A Social & Creative Community
    🌿 Gathering & Sharing – We often enjoy casual gatherings where we cook together, exchange ideas, and share stories about our backgrounds. Whether it’s a simple farm meal, a pottery session, or an evening chat under the stars, you’ll be part of a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

    🎨 Art & Craft Exchange – If you love ceramics, design, or handmade crafts, this is a great place to develop your skills and share your artistic ideas. You can learn traditional Thai pottery techniques, experiment with different styles, and contribute to the creative energy of the studio.

    🏡 Living the Thai Farm Life – You’ll get a chance to experience rural Thai life, interact with locals, and understand the connection between nature, art, and sustainable living. We also encourage Workawayers to explore the surrounding area, visit nearby markets, and see a more authentic side of Thailand beyond tourist destinations.

    💡 What We Can Share With You:

    Thai pottery & ceramics – Learn the basics of working with clay, glazing, and firing.

    Different approaches to teaching and engaging with children.
    Your own cultural stories, food, or skills that you’d like to share with us!
    A Home Away From Home
    We want it to feel like a second home for Workawayers. Whether you stay for a short time or longer, we hope you’ll leave with new skills, beautiful memories, and lifelong friendships. We can’t wait to meet you and share this experience together! 😊🌿✨

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We provide a comfortable and private space for Workawayers to stay while still being close to nature and the creative energy of the farm and studio.

    🏡 Your Living Space
    You’ll stay in a separate house within the farm area, giving you a residency-like experience while still being part of our small community. The house includes:

    Two private rooms – You may have a room to yourself or share with another Workawayer, depending on availability.
    Air conditioning & fans – Stay cool and comfortable in Thailand’s warm climate.
    A shared bathroom – Bathrooms are separate from the rooms but easily accessible.
    A kitchen – You’ll have access to a kitchen where you can cook your own meals, and sometimes we cook together as a group, sharing recipes and enjoying homemade food.
    A Peaceful and Creative Environment
    The house is located within the farm and studio area, so you’ll be surrounded by nature while still having easy access to the workspace, café, and other farm activities. It’s a great place to relax, reflect, and enjoy the slower pace of farm life.

    We want you to feel at home while you’re here, whether you're resting, creating, or sharing moments with new friends. 😊🌿🏡
    I'm more than happy to share meals and see it as a wonderful way to connect and exchange cultures.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We are looking for female Workawayers who are either currently studying at university or have already graduated. Since our farm is run by a small team of women, we find that having like-minded individuals who are independent and can take care of themselves works best in our environment.

    🐾 Animal Lovers Welcome!
    We have cats and dogs on the farm, so we’d love for you to be comfortable around animals and enjoy their company. They are part of our farm family and add to the warmth of the place!

    🌱 Some Farming Experience is a Plus
    While you don’t need to be an expert, basic knowledge or experience in farming, gardening, or outdoor work would be helpful. More importantly, we’re looking for someone who is open-minded, willing to learn, and enjoys spending time in nature.

    💡 A Supportive & Collaborative Space
    We encourage a friendly and cooperative atmosphere where everyone shares skills, helps each other, and grows together. If you have a passion for art, sustainability, and working with the community, we’d love to welcome you to our farm! 😊🌿✨
