Hello dear wwoofer and thank you for your interest in our place
Our farmer Maria has been a wwoofing at New Zealand, in Latinamerica and Europe for several years before she was employed at the school to run our farm.
Learn to grow your own vegetables using the no-dig system. All of our food travel very few yards before it ends in our professionel kitchen preparing food for our 150 students and 30 employees.
These methods make it possible to grow in harmony with the earth and even reestablish the fertility in the soil.
We seek people to help us with the garden.
Examples of tasks:
Vegetables: Seeding, planting, weeding, harvesting and packing everything for the kitchen, kicthen-tasks.
Animals: Feeding the chickens, rabbits and collets eggs.
In return you will get lessons in the organic and no-dig method, outside and in greenhouses.
It is important to us that people have a true interest in self sufficiency and have a willingness to learn and work with young people (15 to 17 years)
People with good spirit, positive attitude and of course an engagement in our place and the methods we use are more than welcome here. We are non-smokers and will prefer you are as well.
We welcome vegetarians and vegans who come to learn, but you need to respect that we slaughter our own livestock and sometimes talk about it.
You work 5 hours a day 5-6 days a week and have 1-2 day off. So there is plenty of time each day to get out and see the country. You can borrow one of our bikes.
It is different what time of day you start, as it depends on the task you have to do.
You have free wifi and a room in the house or in a tipi and five meals a day. Feel free to ask questions.
Organic methods: We use the organic metode.
Certifications: no, We dont sell our products
When you are here. we try to get you involved both in the field and in the kitchen. so you both help produce the vegetables and the meat and help transform it into delicious food in the kitchen for the studens in the school. if you have the opportunity to be here 1-2 months or more, you will have the opportunity to try many of the skills, and see coherence in our place.
