  Description

  We are a family that Consist of The Farmer Per, The housewife Birgit and our son Alexander.
  Our big passions is Biodynamic farming and music and you can always get us talking about these topics.
  We live in the countryside of Fyn where we have a beautiful organic and biodynamic farm. Our farm is the main project in our life, which means it is always in a developing stage and in need for extra help.
  
  We always have a lot of projects going on and there is practically no limits on how we can put helpful hands to good use. It all depends your individuel skills. Most of our projects in the colder periods of the year consist of helping with building and working together on constructing wood houses, making sure the animals are having a good time and feeding the cows and sheep. But also working with gardening and understanding farming.
  
  Springtime is always the exciting time for us farmers as this is when we get to start working with the soil again, and we need to prepare it and start putting the first seeds in the ground. everyday depends on the weather as we shift our tasks accordingly, but in general this time of year consist of a lot of work with plants, making seedlings and in general making everything ready for the summer to come.
  
  In summer we work outside everyday and here we start seeing the fruits of our labor. we spend a decent amount of time weeding as our farm is organic and Biodynamic and don't use any form of foreign added nutrients or herbicide or pesticide and by weeding making sure our plants have the best conditions to grow big and strong. As we also have goats and cows we need a lot of hay for them in the winter, which is a proces you can become part of.
  
  Autumn is the actual fruiting season in Denmark when it comes to most vegetables and fruits, so this is the time when we have an abundance of food. We have a lot of apples that we make into juice which is one many cool project we do with our surplus of foods in this time of the year.
  
  We live very close to the ocean and nature is all around, so if you like to go for walks, these are very beautiful places to explore.
  
  We are in general a family who likes to spend a lot of time outside or at least working mostly with our hands, which means our use of computers is limited, so at times we would probably appreciate some help with this kind of work too.
