Description
We are Jessica and Rory, a Belgian-Irish couple in our mid 40's. After travelling for years (often as Workawayers) we found home in the middle-north of Sweden, population density 3p/km2. Our small farm (14ha) is surrounded by forest and located on a 4km long peninsula in one of the biggest lakes of the area.
We have 2 dogs, Ben & Louie, 3 cats, chickens, 4 mama sheep and sometimes a bunch of lambs.
Since '23 our little community has expanded. 2 friends, one with her 14-year old daughter, have moved in permanently in the cottages and 2 horses are now also living on the meadow.Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre

Of course you will experience and learn a lot about animals and gardening. Rory is very much into bushcraft, and Jes into growing and making her own food things (wine, sourdough bread, and other fermented stuff) so if that's your thing, you'll love it here.
There is a ton of material and loads of space on the farm. So if you have any ideas for a new project, shoot!Aide
Our main focus is always the animals.
Ben and Louie need big walks and lots of cuddles. We think couples / duo's are best because our boys are big and strong. We believe that it is more fun if each walks one dog. Louie is a lot lighter and easier to handle, Ben is quite heavy and stronger. But if you have experience with dogs and you're confident you can handle two big boys on your own, then we'd love to hear from you too.
We have sheep and chickens, who don't need a lot of care in summer, but are fun to watch :-)
Furthermore we have a big vegetable and strawberry garden that need a lot of love (and weeding).
And this summer we are planning to do some small renovations, painting jobs and ... build a sauna :-)
Consider that we have a simple diet. We eat porridge. We bake our own sourdough bread. We eat lots of eggs (from our own chickens) and potatoes (from our land) and vegetables (not always from our own land as the growing season is short). We eat meat maybe twice a week, preferably from our own animals. We don't buy fancy ingredients. We don't usually buy organic (we would like to, but we live on a tight budget). We would like you to eat like we do (meaning: in the same price range). If you are attached to eating certain expensive foods, we would like you to pay for those yourself.Langues parlées

The workawayer's den will be in 'Emma', the cosy caravan. There is a small kitchen and dry toilet in there. You can take a shower in the main house.
Autres infos...
If you have your own transport, you will have more freedom to discover the wider area. If you don't mind spending your freetime at the farm, in the surrounding forests or at the lake, then you can get here by plane + train (Ånge station). We can pick you up at the train station.

Ben and Louie, the two dogs we were looking after, were quite hard to leave after the good times we had on our daily walks. All the animals grew dear to our hearts very quickly.
Even though we didn't have a car with us, there were plenty of things to do around the area. For… read more
