Description
Join us this May to help with our gardens and spend time with our Family. We have availability in May, June, and July to help mainly with our gardens, baking, and other farm and home-related tasks.
We have lots of experience hosting overseas guests and look forward to showing you our lovely community and country lifestyle.
We are a family of 6 with 4 adventurous boys, a dog, a cat, chickens, a pony, and a mini donkey, as well as a barn full of pigs. You can stay in our newly built large guest room and be rewarded with yummy home-cooked meals. Mark has a wealth of knowledge in farming and is a five-star handyman, Evelyn bakes delicious sourdough bread and yummy pretzels and likes to garden. The G2G trail passes right by our farm and although located in the countryside, our nearby town is only a 10-minute bike ride away.
If this interests you, reach out and we'll chat some more. e.Types of help and learning opportunities

Help
This year, we are mainly looking for help in and around the garden, including planting, weeding, and maintenance. Additionally, assistance in the house, such as cooking, baking, and light housework, is needed. We would prefer one traveler as it is easier for us to take you along on trips, but we could potentially make two work.
