Michaelshof Sammatz

Hello globetrotters, hello curious people of this world! You want to experience something new? Discover the world? Get to know yourself? Take on the challenge of 'life'? Then come join our team, we are a bunch of young (and also older) people who have a lot of fun living and working.

Michaelshof is an international community surrounded by nature in the beautiful Wendland. We are 250 people who create a life together that is good for people and nature. All our food is organically (-dynamically) grown and we place great value on nature and spirituality. We love to start new projects and in more than 37 years we have already set up many things: a Demeter farm, a bakery, a dairy, a medicinal plant manufactory, a farm store & an organic café, a children's and youth home, 6 hectares of gardens and parks, a construction site and much more.

And although we tend to be busy on the outside, it always comes down to people first and foremost: Find the value that only you have - & give it to the world! What value do you have?

Currently we need help in the areas of garden, construction site, children and youth home, kitchen and housework:

1. Our garden is a beautiful piece of nature, a perfect teacher. Grab your shovels with us and let's get to weeding, planting & pruning. Or go out to the vegetable field with us and take care of lettuce & co. for the community and people from the region! Organic. Regional. Fair.

2. We are currently building our colorful ‹Flachsenberg Settlement›, a housing project for our community that creates living space for potential community members. The team is international and good-humored and will show you how to build a house. Our specialty is drywall, but there's all kinds of more to learn, from brick to electrical, painting, insulation and more. Hands on!

3. Our Peronnik Children's and Youth Home is the heart of our community. Children from a wide variety of backgrounds find a new home here and (mostly) love living in a community. Do you feel like playing soccer with some kids, going to see the animals, playing diabolo, or just chatting? Come to team Peronnik!

4. Who’s hungry, let’s go the kitchen! Every day we cook lunch for over 200 people – in the summer a lot of vegetables come directly from the field. Be a part of it, clean, chop, season and eat! Also, Christian always needs help in our brand-new canning kitchen where we preserve vegetables.

5. Community doesn't work without cleaning and we love it nice & clean, so we spread that too, like much else, on everyone's shoulders, including yours!

If you have a skill that we can put to good use at Michaelshof, you can potentially contribute to Sammatz with your individual know-how as well.
There are few rules at Sammatz, an important one being: no alcohol or drugs on site. If you can't imagine this during your stay, please apply to another host.

Just apply with exciting infos about yourself, your talents, your weaknesses and your passions! We have plenty of room in our large international community! If you have any questions, just contact Hannah and Antonia, Team Volunteers Michaelshof. We are looking forward to meeting you!

At Michaelshof, you can make friends with over 100 other international volunteers, you can improve your humanistic skills (farming, cooking, animal care, etc), and you can come to truly understand a simpler, focused, and more real life. From the (sometimes challenging) work, to the endless conversations, to the craziness of the shared kitchen, you feel tired, but accomplished after each day. Michaelshof is a special community, and if you like learning and meeting other travelers in a busy but tranquil environment, Michaelshof will provide a wonderful experience for your life.

Dear Giulio,

It was a real pleasure having you with us! You were a great help in every area – in the kitchen, in the garden, in the café, and even later on the construction site. We especially appreciated your positive and friendly attitude, which made working together so enjoyable.

Thank you for all your support – you’ll always be warmly welcome back!

Best wishes, TEAM Michaelshof

No words can describe how nice volunteering in Sammatz was. One of the best experience I’ve had so far.
The hosts are very sweet and they will make sure you feel comfortable with the work that has been given. The food was also excellent and I really enjoyed the cake time every afternoon.
If you are looking for spending time in nature while having fun surrounded by beautiful people coming from all over the world, this is the place to be!

Viviane was such a great help during her stay with us! She jumped in everywhere with lots of energy – from daily tasks to spontaneous rides, and especially in our café where she did an amazing job. She’s super reliable, organized, and always kept a positive attitude.
100% recommended – anyone would be lucky to host her!

Merci beaucoup, dear Viviane, for being so warm-hearted, flexible, and always ready to help – we wish you all the best!!

This was my first volunteering experience and I couldn’t have chosen a better place! In Sammatz you get the chance to work in a variety of areas and learn a lot from each one of it. I spent most of the time on the construction site, and it was really fulfilling to be part of the Tiny Houses project, to gain hands-on experience and to share special moments with such an amazing team and leaders. I learned so much from both locals and volunteers from all over the world and I’ll never forget the incredible connections I made here.
I really look forward to coming back ☺️
