I spent two months at the Skarsholt farm and it was very nice ! Charlotte is a wonderful person with a beautiful heart. She was always there for us and she did everything to make us feel comfortable. If you want to learn a lot of things every day, this farm is for you. Thank you for all these moments shared at the Skarsholt farm. It was just amazing. I highly recommend this farm.

Hei! We stayed as a couple of friends on our very first WWOOFing farm, and our experience was amazing. We enjoyed our time so much that we're already looking forward to our next WWOOFing stay! Veslemøy and Bjørnsternje are such warmhearted people and we felt as soon as we arrived very welcome. :) Our tasks were varied — from chopping wood (our favorite!) to fixing fences and feeding/cleaning the goat, sheep, and cow enclosures. After work, we sometimes did fun activities with the family or on our own. We truly loved the summer farm and the hot chocolate by the fire. Thank you so much — we had an incredible time, and we will always remember this as an important part of our journey through norway!

Jeg om min far var på gården i en liten uke i November. Johanna og Alexander bor på en nydelig plass med gåavstand til Jær-strendene! Vi bodde i campingvognen og fikk bruke fasilitetene på låven (kjøkken, bad og dusj). Johanna lagde herlig middag til oss og spurte alltid om det var noe vi ønsket oss til de andre måltidene, som vi ordnet oss selv. Ettersom det nye huset ennå var under bygging jobbet vi for det meste på egen hånd. På uken vi var der fikset vi deler av gjerdet, matet sauene og forsterket taket på låven med ekstra bjelkelag. Det ble litt mindre dyrehold enn det nok vanligvis er, men dette var vi klar over når vi kom på denne tiden av året. Vi fikk likevel med oss parasittbehandling og flytting av sauene den siste dagen, som var veldig kjekt å få være med på. Vi anbefaler virkelig å jobbe på Bogsdalen gård, Johanna og Alexander er skikkelig positive og rause! Vi håper å få tatt oss en tur innom neste sesong og se hvordan det har blitt på gården!

I stayed for a month in June at Aschim Vestre Farm, I had the chance to be there for long enough to feel at home with the people and the routines. About the work: The tasks were varied, we did lots of weeding in the potatoes, grains or vegetable fields during my time. There was also some scraping of the paint of the red house, grain sorting, building fences, demolishing walls or taking care of the chickens and ducks. We chose when we would start, depending the tasks, how were feeling and what Ylva thought was best we started between 8-10am and worked around 5 hours per day. We had a one or two days off per week. The tasks were always manageable and when tasks allowed it, Ylva made sure we were working with at least 1 other wwoofer. About the experience: The farm is a beautiful place, and so is the family that lives there. A big thank you To Ylva and Alf Ove, and the kids, for taking us wwoofers on with lots of kindness, appreciation and patience. They welcomed lots of wwoofers so there was always 3-5 of us, Ylva tries to arrange when possible to have wwoofers come at the same period that might be similar in age, and that was a sucess because I met lots of wonderful people. The farm is near a beautiful fjord where we had lots of fun going down to and swimming. You'll definitely love your time at the Aschim Vestre Farm. Thank you for hosting me for a wonderful time this summer. I hope the farm continues to grow and thrive.

I had two great weeks on your farm! Ole and James are very nice and I liked the responsibility to care for all the different lovely animals. I had my own cozy little house and the view and all the snow were great. I will always remember the sledging with the horses and the sheep at the viking party. Thank you:))
