1. Describe your project, your place, and its inhabitants (including animals):
Fruit and berry farm with own cider and wine production. The farm is located by the Stjørdale river in a small place called Flora. We who run it are May Anita and Einar. And we have a farm dog called Kaja. The farm is Debio sertifisert from 2022
Unfortunately, we cannot accept visitors from outside the EU.
2. List the activities that WWOOFers will participate in and what you want to teach them:
Daily work on the farm is tending fruit and berry trees. We produce drinks and products from our crops. We arrange cider tasting and then we have a second-hand shop. Organic apple trees and raspberries are the main occupation
3. How will you feed and house WWOOFers? Please describe your accommodations and plan for meals:
There is a separate room on the farm facing the apple orchard. We eat a little depending on the work on the various days, but have dinner in the late afternoon
4.
Work is versatile, depending on the weather and time of year. But planting, weeding, mowing, tying up and picking berries and fruit is the main job. Then we make juice, soft drinks, cider and wine, mostly in the autumn. In the summer, we have an open second-hand shop and farm shop. We have bees that are looked after regularly.
In June and until July 20th there is maintenance, planting, preparation. Raspberry season starts on July 20th and runs until August 20th. Honey is harvested in August. Apple season starts at the end of August and lasts all of September.
Apple pressing takes place in September. Aronia berries are picked in September.
5. Play the guide! Talk about your own hobbies (music, cooking, etc.) and those possible around (hiking, swimming, etc.):
We live on the farm, so many of our interests are fruit, flowers and nature. It is a versatile garden and we enjoy gardening. In autumn there is a lot of mushroom picking. And then we are interested in antiques as we run a second-hand shop
