I miss this wonderful family and farm so much! I only had three weeks available to work on the farm, and I so wish I could have stayed longer. I got there right as kidding season started so my days were full with baby goat births, and every single one was such an amazing experience to be a part of. I learned how to help deliver a baby goat from
… read more start to finish when the season started, and over 175 babies were born in the time I was there so we sure stayed busy! I spent most of my time there on the farm as that’s exactly where I wanted to be, but the family is super flexible and accommodating for whenever you want to go check out the surrounding towns and take time off– there are a ton of cute towns and fun things to do in the area. I absolutely loved getting to know their kids as well and spending time with them during the day and at dinner – they are so sweet and silly, and we had so many great conversations, questions, and Gummy Bear dance parties in the barn … hey Google! The farm is beautiful, my dog loved playing with their dogs and exploring the woods, and the whole family has so much respect and love for every single one of their goats and other animals and you can see that in everything they do. It was truly a life-changing experience and I really hope to get back there someday – thanks for everything, miss you all!You can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.

Austin and Dani were great hosts. The kids as well. Very welcoming and easy to get on with. What a dynamic family. They have so much going on and lots more plans for the future. Amazing how they keep focused and on track. The creamery is such a great set up, and growing. The cheeses they make in there are superb. We worked with the goats, learning

Many are just about to kid, and sadly we missed that as we had to move on. But we enjoyed our time with them very much and hope to see them all in Oz one day. Keep being so good to your little siblings, Ari. We would highly recommend a visit here. Cheers.You can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.

These two lovely capable girls stayed with us for about three short weeks. Each is an exceptional individual with talents and heart to spare. They both were able to help out with our brimful life and become part of our family. They are the most considerate house guests, able to help with chores, organization, creative ideas, cooking, cleaning,

We spent three weeks with this family and wish we could have stayed longer. They were incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home. We helped with morning and evening farm chores — feeding and watering the goats, pigs, and chickens. During the day, we trimmed goat hooves, etched metal name tags for the goats, organized various spaces, did
… read more yard work and landscaping, and packed cheese in the creamery. In between projects, we played with the kids, explored the surrounding area, and ate amazing home cooked food from the farmers' market. We miss them so much and hope to come back and visit sometime soon.You can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.
