Description
Hi my name is Joren. I work(ed) and live(d) on non-conventional farms; using techniques from permaculture, wildfarming, biodynamic farming and organic farming; raising all kinds of crops, herbs and flowers. Through workaway I'm looking for hosts where i can get more farming and forestry experience. In addition I’m curious in how people approach a (semi-)self-sustainable living as I would love to have a place like that in the future. So techniques for storing food and buidling living accomodations are also things i wan't to learn about. So far i have had lovely experiences traveling with workaway and had a lot of fun meeting people, living together and making friends. I travel together with my cat by car, which I converted sleeping.

Joren is a very skilled, respectful and friendly person. He was autonomous while working as well as engaged with the daily life and routines. He was our first official workawayer and we were really happy with him. It was a great experience to have him on the land. Looking forward to see him again!

I stayed here in February 2024 and had a great experience. Aron and Raquel are lovely people and momo is a cute and playful dog. The accomodations are very basic though they have an infinity pool. they are working on making more accomodations for more volunteers visiting. I mainly did forestry work but there are so many different things that can… read more

Joren stayed with us for two weeks and oh man, the place has been completely transformed. In so little time he managed one task after the other and even found tasks himself. We are absolutely grateful for all his effort.
On another note he is also a very chill and easy-going person to hang around with. We enjoyed fires, concerts and even a party… read more

We spend two weeks with Joren and I can just recommend him from my whole heart! He is an easy going person, absolutely valuable, experienced in many working fields, able to work independent and responsible, motivated for each task, persistent and he does it all without struggling and with good mood. Often we had to stop him working cause he would… read more

Martha and Farmer are one of the most welcoming people I have ever met. From the first message I got from them I already felt wanted. And on arriving I was literally welcomed with open arms at the front door. They will treat you so lovingly with their cooking and company. These people are "givers" and give you room to give back however you want.… read more
