I cannot fault my experience at the farm. Monika is an incredible, kind host who put in the extra mile to connect with the myself and the other volunteers. The work is fair and flexible with plenty of time to do your own thing. Monika's family and community are lovely and inviting. It felt like I had taken a pit stop home on my travels. I can't recommend this place more 💗💗💗

I had the best time on the farm! It was my first experience and surpassed my expectations! The work is aligned with the description, it is not hard and I enjoyed picking the raspberries. You just have to be aware it starts early in the morning and being punctual is important. Monika and family are amazing hosts! They were so open and available to the volunteers, communication was clear, we shared good times together and I had the pleasure of celebrating my birthday on the farm! I highly recommend it! Monika, Jure, Filip, Carlie, and Misan, thank you so much! Hope to see you again!!

I had the most amazing time here! The host family is incredibly welcoming and you will feel right at home here, no matter how long you stay. The farm was amazing and there is also so many day trips you can take during your time off. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or want to hear more! Truly a very special experience that I am lucky to have had!

Monica and Jure deserve more than 5 stars. They are very friendly, kind and willing to help you with everything. Besides the work and traveling I also enjoyed conversations with them, their family and their friends. Everybody tries to make you happy, answer all your questions and explain their traditions. Working hours were fair (5 hours/day) and we never worked longer. They are also willing to give you a bike for a trip or sometimes they pick me up to the nearby city from where I could continue for my trip. All in all, you will make a great choice if you decide for this farm.

I don't have a single (even slightly) negative thing to say about this experience. Monika and her family were awesome, kind and welcoming. You really feel like a part of the family. Both work itself and the hours are completely fitting for what you're getting, anything less and I would feel like I'm ripping them of. Work is not that hard and is even quite enjoyable. You get to spend time with great people in beautiful nature along tons of raspberries, cows, chickens, kitten and the sweetest dog ever! What more would you want?

I had the most amazing time at Monika's the farm. Monika and her family were so welcoming, kind and generous. They go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and help you out with anything you need. The property and surrounding scenery is beautiful, and Celje is a lovely town to spend free time in. the farm picking and weeding tasks were really enjoyable! The farm is a perfect place to relax and enjoy peaceful nature. There are also plenty of things to do during the day, like lovely walks around the property or helping deliver raspberries around town. Thank you Monika 🫶🏼

The experience was wonderful! Monica and everyone on the farm made me feel so welcomed. Monica is the kindest person, she will make you laugh all the time. She became a great friend. The farm is really beautiful. You will be surrounded by nature everywhere. The chickens and cows are amazing. She has a little kitten and a dog, who is the best behaved dog I've ever met. The work is really not that hard once you get used to it. The hardest part was probably the heat, so you wake up early to avoid it. It was actually quite calming and fun. Go! You will love it.

This was my first time volunteering and I was really nervous when I stepped off the train in Celje. The feeling was quickly reduced when I was greeted with a big smile and open arms. Monika is easy-going, generous, funny, considerate and social. She will make you feel comfortable and welcomed. I felt very safe with her and her family who were generous to offer us a ride to see the sights. Picking raspberries early in the morning with roosters cock-a-doodle-doo-ing into the fresh dew dripping air was as wonderful as it sounds. The view and atmosphere is astonishing. Go, re-wild yourself.

Monika and Jure are wonderful people who care so much about making sure volunteers have a fulfilling time. The work is rewarding and the hosts go in great depth about how and why each task is completed. We cannot recommend this experience enough to any Worldpacker. They truly make you feel at home and as if you are a part of the family. Not only that, but the quality time with the family outside of the work is unmatched, as they have set the bar to which all other hosts aim to reach. The only drawback is that their raspberries are out of this world, ruining the love we have for ours at home.

This was the perfect first Worldpackers experience! Monika and her family are so welcoming and friendly, they really make you feel like part of their family and cared for. The work was straightforward and the hours were respected and it was amazing to learn more about sustainable farming. There is plenty of downtime to explore the surrounding area, which is so beautiful. Would 100% recommend to other Worldpackers, and I will miss Monika and her family, as well as all the animals (especially escape Biba!).
