Descripción
If you can´t travel the world, invite the world to your home!
We - that is my husband Niko and me, Isabella - worked in the field of democratic citizenship education in Vienna when we decided to make a dream come true and move to a farm in the South of Austria.
Food sovereignity, agriculture for biodiversity and the philosophy of the good life are the bigger ideas that fuel and inspire our daily work.
Since 2012 we are navigating through the ups and downs of selfsustainment - we have a garden, forest, sheep and chickens, all of it exclusevily for our own subsistence - whilst earning our living with Nikos job off the farm, a freelancing coach in schools covering different topics.
Our daughters were born 2014 and 2019, in 2024 our dog joined the family. Cats and ducks complete the little farm animal stock we keep.
After a couple of years of learning and finding our mission we are now planning to establish an agrotourism project, where we pass on the know-how we have gathered to those interested in topics like cheesemaking, processing garden vegetables and fruits, processing meat, cooking courses and also more philosophical seminars like Eating Meat, Religious Atheism and Lifestyle, Mass Production of Food etc.
Hosting workawayers makes it possible for us to focus on bringing forward our agritourism project and still run, with their help, the selfsustainment-farm including household and family.
We also try to take the time to enjoy the pleasures of a self-determined countryside-life and to discuss life, love, food/cuisine, and politics with helpers over from all over the world.
We have been hosting for 13 years now and gathered quite some experience about what is the best solution for us as family and farmers. We realized that we prefer long-term-stays of 3 weeks and more. It gives us, including our daughters, and workawayers the chance to get to know to each other and to establish a common routine. That allows us and guests to plan ahead according to everybodys needs and thus realize bigger projects and have free days also off the farm. However, sometimes we might need more helping hands for a shorter period, so in any case, don´t hesitate to contact us!

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
We offer helpers accomodation in our house, so you would live with us and share our every-day-life, which is subsistence farm-work, child raising, cooking and household (Isabella is an excellent cook, especially but not only on austrian dishes, including vegetarian and vegan cuisine and dishes with meat).
We gladly show our workawayers everything we have learned about subsistence farming, from choosing independent seed suppliers to planning a garden, keeping chickens and sheep, processing fruits, vegetables, milk and meat to harvesting hay and wood. All of this strongly varies with the season, the weather, our family and job-schedules - so please feel free to ask in advance where the focus will be during a stay you plan on our farm.
We also provide bikes and a scooter if you want to explore the surroundings. If you stay long enough and there is time, we love to show people around the area, e.g. taking them to the nearby organic chocolate factory, panoramic view points, lakes etc.

Ayuda
The area we need help with is all the subsistence farming mentioned above. The exact tasks change with the season and maintennace projects we deal with at a given moment, but generally we may expect from you:
- feeding/watering the sheep and chickens
- mucking out the stables
- gardening and help on the fields (including sowing, weeding, harvesting and processing crops, hay harvest)
- woodwork (we heat with wood and get it out of our own forest)
- building and constructing, (e.g. new plant beds, repairing fences, building a tree house for the kids, painting the stables)
- haywork (only in summer)
- babysitting, sometimes household-tasks like cleaning, laundry, cooking, shopping...
- depending on our schedule (appointments off the farm) there will be days where Workawayers would be responsible for the daily farm work all alone
- other tasks depending on your skills and interests
As parents and farmers who do all the back-office-work themselves our days are often rather full. That means you should be prepared to often, yet not all the time, work independently. If you are travelling alone that might mean that on some days you spend the working hours all on your own, unless we host another workawayer at the same time. That depends on requests and if we think that workawayers would be a good match. We have great experiences with any kind of arrangement: some people enjoy being the only workawayer at a time, others prefer more company. If you want to know before you come here what to expect, please feel free to ask!

Alojamiento
We have a spacious room which is very suitable for couples/friends or even families but also for sharing with other workawayers. We and our guests share a bathroom.
Regarding food we offer 3 meals a day, one of them is a warm dish, usually lunch.It is prepared with fresh and nourishing ingredients and we all come together for that meal: family, workawayers, other guests - whoever is part of the farm family at that moment 🙂.
For the other two meals we keep it simple and share with our workawayers what we, too have as meals:
* homemade porridge and/ or toast, butter, honey, jams and cheese; coffee or tea for breakfast.
* A cold supper with bread, cheese, bread spreads, vegetables, pickles... And whatever you want to add to it on your own expense.
Breakfast and supper are sometimes shared, other times you would have them individually, that depends on our needs and schedule as family.
Please note that for the occasions where you take your meals without us we provide the kitchen to prepare a breakfast or supper as mentioned above, but we don't provide the kitchen for cooking.
Sweets and snacks are not provided - apart from dried apples that we produces ourselves - but there is a supermarket in the village.
Regarding meat in meals, we usually try to eat only our own meat (lamb and chicken), other meat we just buy once in a while. So be prepared to have more vegetarian dishes than ones with meat! (And don´t worry, also the vegetarian dishes are made to nourish you to be able to do physical work :o)
Algo más...
We only accept workawayers with health insurance.
We are a bit far off the village (3 km - so still within walking distance), and as mentioned, we have bikes and a scooter, and it should never be a problem to take you to the village by car. There is a public bus to Graz (capital of Steiermark) several times a day - Graz is not only a city worth visiting, but also has a railwaystation and airport with trains/planes taking you to other places in Austria as well as to international destinations.

I and a friend Enya decided to spend time in Niko and Isa's farm a week to help with some farm work and enjoy Austrian and European culture.It was a nice farm with some farm animals and a lot of stars.… read more

Guanxian and his travelling partner Enya stayed with us for only a week, but they really made a difference!
They worked hard, always had an open door for our very curious little daughter and were cheerfull (and beautifully singing!) all the time. They also were very open and interested in other guests we had around - another workawayer, friends… read more

I had a really great time staying with Isa, Niko and their beautiful (and so clever!) little daugter Aurelia. They opened up their family to me right away and made sure that I had everything I needed. I always felt welcome to join them when they were around the house or out side. Both Niko and Isa are super friendly, down to earth and courious on… read more

Jana, who stayed with her friend Sophia, is a very reliable and considerate person. She always made sure that she had understood the tasks, and she also came up with own suggestions and solutions. It was her first workaway experience, and she was really eager to help!

First of all, before going to Isa's place, be prepared to live an amazing experience. Isa, Niko and their daughter Aurelia are the kind of person you won't forget. We have stayed at their farm for two weeks and we had such a great time !
We felt at ease the moment we arrived and even though neither of us had worked in a farm before they put trust… read more

Lucille and Florian stayed with us for 2 weeks, and even though due to a 2-weeks- "sickness leave" of mine things didn´t turn out as planned and agreed in advance, they were very understanding and helpful. I knew that I never had to think twice about asking them for help, even if they had just fullfilled a task or already done their hours.… read more

Sophia, who stayed with her friend Jana, was very lovely company to have around, she somehow always was in a good and gentle mood. It was her second workaway experience and although her first one seems to have been really awful, she arrived openminded and very friendly.

Dear Isa, Niko and Aurelia,
the time we spend with you at the farm was exciting. We've learned a lot about the daily farm live and way more from lots of interesting conversations with you. You have an fantastic lifestyle which is really worth it to sample the pleasures of it. The "work" with the sheeps, chickens and sometimes to help in the house… read more

Dear Lili, Isa and Niko,
I am sorry for posting my feedback so late but I think I have got time to "digest" the whole experience you gave me and to look at it from certain distance :)
I admit that we worked hard but what else do you expect when you go farming, right? And I enjoyed the hardworking so much! And I am realizing it now when I have… read more

I´m honestly not sure what we´ll do without Jana... ;o)
It was great to have her at our home for a month, everybody, from our little daughter to our friends and neighbours and of course ourselves, really liked her. She has the gift to get along easily with anybody, accepting people the way they are.
Jana is a very mature, self confident and… read more

I spent 2 weeks at Nikko and Isa's house and really felt at ease there! I met all kinds of like-minded and easy-going people who helped me (who was born in a city) have the best first experience of daily life in a farm! What I like most about my hosts is they always tried to show us the deepest sides of farming life (like how to kill a sheep… read more

What was especially nice about having Eliza around was the impression that she herself really enjoyed every experience she made here, was it babysitting our little daughter, sheepherding, cooking for us...
She never needed much explaining and the results where always more than satisfying. She lived with us like a familiy member, sharing our… read more

If you get the chance to stay and volunteer with Isa and Niko, you won't regret it. My experience on their farm was incredibly fulfilling. The help required varied each day and I always felt welcome and that any suggestions or ideas were heard. Being around the sheep and chickens made me feel comfortable and confident. Babysitting was excellent as… read more
