WELLCOME TO PEACEFUL AND BEAUTYFUL FEMØ!
Note: For a longer stay, please write and ask.
Our regenerative hempfarm (CBD) is located on a beautiful small Island north of Lolland. There is only 120 people living here but many tourists in the summertime. To get here you take a small ferry and already on the ride you will feel the calmness.
ABOUT US
We are a rainbow family in our mid-forties, Christina and Mette – living with our 13-year-old son Otto and our cocker spaniel, Elli. Christina works full-time on the farm, and Mette also works in Copenhagen.
Both our farm and the island are safe, welcoming places for queers and for women travelling alone. Femø has a long tradition of openness, care, and community, and many people come here to feel at ease, grounded, and respected — just as they are. Everyone is welcome here!
ABOUT YOU
Your age doesn’t matter to us. What matters is that you’re a capable, self-reliant person who feels comfortable taking care of yourself in everyday life.
You’ll be staying outdoors in your own camper at our small nature-based campsite, so you should genuinely enjoy being outside and living close to nature.You should also be happy to do physical outdoor work and be comfortable working in all kinds of weather. Life here follows the seasons, and being flexible and positive about that is important.

ABOUT THE FARM
We started our small regenerative farm in 2022 with industrial hemp, chickens, and a small vegetable garden, and we are still very much in the process of building it up. This makes it a great opportunity to be part of a start-up farm rooted in regenerative principles.
Our main crop is industrial hemp, grown on about one acre. Everything is done by hand – from planting to harvesting – and the plants are used for our own CBD products.
In addition, we have ducks and around 100 free-range laying hens, which play an important role in our regenerative system. That said, they are not just “workers” – we genuinely love and care for them 😊
The work on the farm varies with the seasons and also depends on your skills and interests. There is always plenty to do: caring for soil and plants, looking after chickens, maintaining outdoor areas, chopping wood, painting, and building various small projects. Life here is hands-on, varied, and closely connected to nature.
YOUR STAY
Because Femø is a very small and quiet island, it’s important that you are comfortable spending a lot of time on your own. You will have plenty of alone time here. We’re not able to integrate volunteers into our private daily routine, so your stay is quite independent. We do, however, work together during the day, and that’s when we spend time side by side.
You will prepare all your own meals. We provide food both from the farm and from the local grocery store, so you’ll have what you need, but cooking is entirely self-organised.
You’re welcome to come alone, as a couple, or with friends. Accommodation is in one of our two cozy campers. Both campers are nicely furnished and heated during the colder months. Each camper has one double bed, so if you come as two people, you will be sharing a bed with your travel companion.
The campers are located on a beautiful nature-based campsite with a covered outdoor kitchen, a grill, a fireplace, and shared outdoor areas. There is a shared composting toilet and a sun-heated outdoor shower.
Prepare yourself for a special nature experience. With no streetlights on the island, you’ll be able to experience true dark skies, and the dominant sounds are birdsong, wind, and the natural rhythms of the island.
A longer stay of up to five months can be arranged. Please write to us if you’re interested, and we can discuss the details.
We're excited to meet you
