Description
We are two open-minded and outgoing young people with a passion for sustainability, social interactions and the nature.
Morten is 31 years old and holds a degree in design engineering. Currently, he works in a company that develops building materials and furniture made from recycled and natural materials.
Mikala is 28 years old and works as a school teacher and outdoor guide. She is devoted to the simple life where resources and consumption align. She likes to be in our garden, and cook delicious meals of the vegetables we grow.
We are currently looking for volunteers who can help for weeks/months in our garden and building site.

You will be waking up in the beautiful nature to the sight and sounds of birds and other wildlife.

After the tasks we will prepare local vegetarian dinner and enjoy the sunset over the hills.

Help
We are building our tiny house on the beautiful hills of Skjoldungernes National Park. The construction will be made in natural and recycled materials - and for that we need all the helping hands we can get.
During the coming months we will also start preparing the soil for this years vegetable garden.

You will either have a private tent or room in one of the tiny houses on the farm. We have a new renovated toilet building with showers and a laundry machine available. We also have a shelter with a beauty full view if you like sleeping in the nature.
While staying with us you will have 3 meals a day. You do your own breakfast before we start working.
After a couple of hours of work we drink coffee together and have a second breakfast. After coffee break we work for 3 hours more.
Most days we will have lunch together and dinner separate. But a couple of days a week we will also cook dinner together.

The place is located in the heart of 1 of Denmark's 5 National Parks.
