Are you interested in farming and do you love animals? Or are you maybe the handyman with carpenter skills?
This year we will need all the help we can get!
Our lifeproject started on a farm we rented. This year we bought finally our own farm just 20 minutes from here.( after yeeeears of searching and wishing) just 20 minutes from here.
Come and help us over to our new own organic farm. We will need to build and get it ready during 2026.
We are working with our lifeprojekt on the farm, which contains milkinggoats and cheesmaking and we take the goats to the mountainfarm in the sommertime. We are an økological farm.
We are a family of 5. Eric, Flora Nine, and the children 15, 13 and 5 years old. Because we have teenagers in the house, we have the need for more privacy. Thats why it is important that you like your own company 😊
The children and we are speaking both Norwegian and Dutch and English!
We are having woofers almost all the time and have place for maximum 2 woofers. We have a caravan and also a little room to live in.
As a woofer, you will learn a lot here, it is nice if you can work independently and like to be on yourself in your freetime.
As a woofer you some days are working long days and other days hiking and enjoying nature
The days are starting early. Cleaning the barn, feeding the goats and you can see how milking works! There will be some repetitive cleaningtasks.
Very nice if you like to be around kids!
Me, Flora Nine, will be cheesemaking every day, and in that time it is nice if you can work with tasks independently. There is always the opportunity to watch the cheesemaking prosess but the cheesemaking room is pritty small.
There will be tasks like packing cheeses and helping on the markeds.
It is also very important that you can communicate when you need some time or when there is other things you need to share, so we know how you are doing😊
There is allways a lot of work to do on a farm and we are working all day long(and also need our moments doing workout yoga or mindfulness), so it is important that you take your freetime too! But if you like to work as much as us, please do!! A nice balance is important here!
We need sometimes diners just alone with our family and will ask you to eat the diner for yourself sometimes or you will do it naturally yourself. Although we really like you to be around, we also got the experience that it is important for our family to have our space!
We need people that have a little experience or are fast learners! And the best is that you can be here for several weeks or even months.
We always need to find out if there is a good connection between us. If it doesn't feels ok to you or to us, we have another (friends-)farm you might like to go to, or we ask you to have a plan B for your travel.
Certifications: Eric Visser
Current projects: building of the productionfacility, goat kids coming in februar,
starting milking the goats ( milking we do ourselves, but if you really are eager to help there, you will have to stay for at least 6 months, because it will take me time to learn you all, than it is nice you can also use what you learnedon our farm), feeding the animals, vegetable garden, building projects at the summerfarm, fencing. and more.
Internet access available but not so good outside of the house and on the summerfarm.
