We bought an idyllic farm in good shape in 2010, and are turning ir into a natural retreat and ever expanding animal sanctuary just 13 km from the centre of the capital, Ljubljana.
There's a lot to be done at all times: every morning and evening cleaning, mucking, feeding and taking care of the many animals, taking care of the garden, digging, seeding, planting, pruning and planting trees, harvesting, renewing the electric fence, some maintenance work, some construction, cleaning out the woods and making firewood, cleaning up, help with household, and a whole lot more, depending on the situation.
In fact help in any area will be appreciated ;)
On the farm there are horses, a donkey, cows, an ox, goats, pigs, chicken, geese, cats, dogs, turtles, tortoises and more different rescued animals coming frequently.
We offer stay in a room in the guest house with shared showers, toilets and small kitchen, and in summer also in a trailer, tent or haybarn, and full (3 meals a day), mostly organic, vegan/vegetarian food in exchange for 6 hours help a day, 5 days per week.
Two days a week you are off to explore our beautiful country.
If you want to stay, sleep, eat and live with us on you free days, please help us for 2 hours in exchange.
We usually have 1 meal (lunch) and occasionally also dinner together. Breakfast and dinner you will take care of yourself from the food provided.
We don't tolerate excessive drinking of alcohol or misuse of any substances!
Nearest public transport and (small) shop is 3 km downhill, your main transport will be your feet or bike ;)
We ask you to stay for at least a month.
We expect you to be physically fit, as work can be hard and all is manual labour, responsible, organised, caring, honest, flexible, energetic, hands-on, creative, be capable to do hard/dirty manual work like mucking, digging, carrying /lifting 20-25 kg repeatedly and to work on your own as well as in a team, keep things clean and orderly, clean up after yourselves, have a sense of humor and understanding for the dynamic life with a huge family and sometimes to just sit back and take it easy when things go their own way.
Things can get loud, hectic and stressful at times.
Volunteer work can be hard and dirty, sometimes long hours, depending on the circumstances.
Helping on farm is not like working in an office. Helping on farm is a lifestyle. Sometimes there is a lot of work that needs to be done in a certain time. So some days work can be some hours more and the other days some hours less.
We try to spend time with you each day, but it happens, that we will not see much of each other.
Please accept that.
The weather can be really hot in summer (above 30 - 35 degrees Celisus) and cold with snow and ice in winter (it can get -15 degrees celisus or more)!
Please be prepared to work outside also in all weather conditions!
Your room can be heated by electric heater and is as warm as you want it to be.
The rest of the guest house can be heated by a woodstove.
We are nude, when the weather and circumstances are appropriate :)
Thank you for your energy, love, support and new knowledgeIdiomas hablados
