Dear WWOOFers,
My name is Juelie (46), and I live with my son (16) in a beautiful natural setting in the hills of Southern Zealand. We strive to live as self-sufficiently as possible by growing our own fruits, vegetables and herbs.
I am a biodynamic horticulture specialist working with plant medicine and its spiritual aspects. I am also a passionate plant collector and have planted more than 300 different kinds of trees on the land, along with over 500 edible plants.
I love working with my hands and express myself as an artist using many different materials. I am constantly sowing, building, creating, and exploring new ideas—with joy and curiosity—even though the work can sometimes be physically demanding.
Alongside this, we host a small B&B where guests can enjoy nature, silence, and a true digital detox. I also work part-time as a nurse.
We share our home with several animals: the sweetest bullmastiff dog, three adult cats (who often have kittens), three goats, three sheep and four chickens.
There are always many projects going on here, and not two days are the same. Depending on the season, tasks may include harvesting fruits, vegetables and herbs, collecting seeds, preparing food for winter storage, chopping wood, weeding, planting or relocating trees, preparing soil, forest trimming, cutting grass, cleaning for the B&B, and maintaining or painting our buildings (we mainly build using upcycled, reused, and natural materials). You may also take part in new building projects and many other things.
Daily routines include feeding the animals and giving them plenty of love and attention. There are also many smaller ongoing projects. I will teach you everything you need to know. What matters most is a true willingness to learn, an openness to receiving guidance, and a desire to do things properly. I am quite detail-oriented and value care, presence, and quality in all the work we do.
Accommodation & Food
We offer two cozy forest cabins for WWOOFers, both built from natural materials. One cabin accommodates two people, and the other is for one person or a couple.
Depending on the season, we eat indoors or outdoors and occasionally cook over a campfire. All food is organic/biodynamic, homegrown, vegetarian, and plant-based.
We are not early risers and usually fast in the morning. You are welcome to prepare your own breakfast and lunch if that suits you better—we respect individual rhythms and needs, and we enjoy sharing a nourishing dinner together in the evening.
Free Time & Surroundings
WWOOFers are expected to participate in daily work during the weekdays, while weekends are generally free to rest, explore, or enjoy personal time.
In your free time, you are welcome to join our creative projects, help with cooking, or simply enjoy the surroundings. Spending time with our animals is also an important part of life here—they need care, presence and affection.
On some weekends, we visit flea markets or attend local events. The beach is only a 15-minute drive away, and Southern Zealand offers beautiful forests, hills and coastline.
What to Expect
It is very important that you are open-minded and willing to experience a different lifestyle. We live close to nature and in harmony with it, and we expect the same respect from our WWOOFers. This includes honoring the land as sacred—no pollution, littering or careless behavior.
Digital Detox Policy
To support a peaceful and natural environment, we do not allow wireless devices (including mobile phones) in outdoor areas. We do not provide WiFi anywhere on the property. You must be comfortable unplugging during your stay and only using your phone inside your cabin.
Diet
We serve a fully plant-based, vegetarian diet. If you normally eat meat, you need to be willing to follow a vegetarian diet during your stay. If you are concerned about protein intake, we recommend reading Plant Power Fitness or The China Study, which highlights the long-proven benefits of a plant-based lifestyle for both body and mind.
Sensitivities
We are very sensitive to synthetic fragrances. Please do not use perfumed or chemically scented products such as perfumes, deodorants, lotions, or detergents. We live a chemical-free life, and it is important that this is respected during your stay.
This lifestyle is not for everyone. It requires openness, humility and a willingness to learn and contribute with care and dedication.
If this resonates with you, we will be happy to welcome you.
.
Before your arrival, we will have a video call to make sure we are on the same wavelength and that there is good chemistry on both sides.
We look forward to welcoming open-hearted, curious, and grounded WWOOFers who wish to learn, contribute, and live close to nature 🌱🌌🌲🐐🕊️
Warm regards,
Juelie
