  • Description

    Description

    We have an opening from June 1 to July 14

    We are a married couple from the UK (39) and Norway (42). We live on a småbruk (small farm) in Øygarden near the sea. We have an organic vegetable patch (no dig) and free ranging rescue/unwanted animals. We are creating a permaculture/forest garden and habitats for wildlife to thrive. Being environmentally friendly and sustainable is very important to us.

    We have a dog, cats, rabbits, ducks, hens, roosters and a lizard. We look after and release hedgehogs too.
    We are also creating a forest garden and have an up and running organic vegetable patch.

    We would like help with all sorts of things, some examples are:
    looking after the animals: day to day care and also building new accommodation for them
    building a fence (this is a priority for the spring)
    general maintenance of the buildings (painting, cleaning)
    compost making, turning and spreading
    setting up off grid solutions
    building a pond
    cooking, shopping and cleaning

    We are flexible, so if there's something you are particularly interested in then you can do that.

    Hébergement

    You will have your own accommodation on our property. It sleeps 8 but 4 is probably more comfortable.

    You will cook your own food. We are happy to receive all different dietary needs as we have some of our own.

    We are about 400 metres from the sea, so it's a nice short walk to get there.

    Due to allergy and environmental reasons, we are a perfume free household and use biodegradable products, for example, vinegar and essential oils for cleaning. We have biodegradable products that you can use :-) You should be perfume free before you arrive. If you have perfumed products in your hair or on your clothes it will transfer to the furniture and bed sheets etc and it doesn't wash off. I can send you some tips about how to be perfume free if you wish :-)

    We have our own sewage system, where all the released "grey" waste water goes through our land. We grow things on it which is another reason we can't have chemicals being sent out onto the land. It's the same with washing clothes. We/you can only wash natural fibres (wool, cotton, linen, hemp etc) here as other materials such as polyester shed micro plastics into the water and we don't want to be eating that :-)

    Autres infos...

    We have made a map of things to do in the area which we can send to you:
    There is an outdoor climbing wall nearby, lots of walking opportunities, a bird reserve, beaches etc. You can borrow our bicycles to get around if you like. We also have kayaks you can borrow and a small sailing boat as we live very close to the sea. Bergen is 1 hour away by car. You can get to Bergen by bus as well but this take a little longer. There's a bus stop next to our house and another bus stop just over 1 km away with more frequent buses.
