    Description

    Who likes hot summer-weather and wants to help us with loads of gardening and hey-harvesting during the summer-months June&July? For August I am looking for a volunteer staying last week of the month until end of September and at least Beginner German.

    Because of unfortunately dissapointing experiences in the past,in advance extra pointed out farm-rule:
    No drug consuming!!!

    We are a small organic farm in the south of Bavaria. Our wonderful animals make up the heart of our farm as we have horses, cows, calves (who run at least 12 weeks with their own mothers), oxes, bulls, chicken and cats. There's a beautiful garden, called Phönix, with vegetables, herbs and flowers, and about 4 hectares of woodland, too. . In the future we would like to make our own flour.
    You could experience a deep connection to nature, almost independency with food, listening to the soil, the animals and the plants and look after their needs.
    I am 34 years old and would be very happy about someone joining this extraordinary gift with me.
    I am listening and speaking a lot with nature, the animals and the plants, like that kind of a helping in a prayer of gratitude and being also a creater of natural art and harmony.
    The vision/next step for the future of our farm is to found a kind of farm-family with different people living and helping together and living from the produce of the farm. So far there is as well just the farmer (59)....should change soon. So if you are interested in living as a community-member here,speaking fluent German and already having an understanding and practical experiences with cattles, please send a short but essential application via the workaway-platform as well:)

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Some of the greatest things around the farm is to walk through the woodlands, visit the rivers or the alp. We are an open-minded uncomplicated bunch and want to enjoy life in the harmony with nature.

  • Help

    Help

    You could help with the animals, cleaning the stables, feeding, walking into the pastures (some of our cows spend the summer on an alp) or just hug them. From spring to fall there is a lot of help needed in the garden, during the winter we spend more time in the woods. We are trying to live from the fruits, vegetables, eggs, milk and meat of the farm

    You don´t need special skills. Just love in the tasks with the creatures and the willingness to learn. We look forward to teaching you everything we know and learn from you, in return (for example Spanish :-) or just from your life experiences as a reflection-gift) and your vision of the world. You shouldn´t be afraid of big animals. If you are an artisanal person, there will be even more we could learn from you.

    You will have your own room in the upper flat of the new farmhouse. This flat is very colourful. The guestrooms for example are pink,yellow&blue, the kitchen pink. We are cooking only on wooden-fire, most of the time vegetarian and gluten-free meals, but if you have special skills in preparing meat, I would love to learn from you.
