Elsebråne Organic Farm

We created a space where the simple life can be enjoyed and you are welcome to be yourself. We mean cultural exchange seriously and we want to integrate you in our lives as a family and show you everything. We offer you the opportunity to learn about organic farming, our vegetarian restaurant with delicious cuisine, our sustainable values, nontraditional methods, and how to work in a team. Located in an old farm near Karlshamn, we’re building a happy family based community where authenticity is valued and your participation in this journey is invaluable. We are honored to be a Top-Host and even more honored to be one of 10 Top-Hosts chosen for the "Worldpacker Award for Sustainability 2024".

We dedicate ourselves to sharing our passion for social living, friendship, sustainability... and we love to share delicious food and gardening also with our guests, creating a welcoming environment where everyone can relax, close to nature. We invite you to come and learn by doing, to grow from your experience, and enjoy building your body through ever changing work and physical challenges. It takes self-discipline and some devotion to find and use our skills and talents and a lot of understanding and training. It takes much more knowledge to run a farm and a sustainable business than many would expect. In the café we cook, serve people, clean, prepare cozy Bed & Breakfast rooms, all while we learn how to live sustainable, in a simple beautiful way – of course when you come to us, you will be the one cleaning, cooking, digging etc., how else could you learn? When Summer comes, our garden gets more exciting with visitors from all corners of the world and things get really busy. But this is also the time for you to come and visit. We will offer you the opportunity to try a long row of different functions in the short time you are here. And you will most likely be in every single function too short time to really learn it. It also takes us resources to tell you things and train you in the different functions. Therefor we do not expect you to create value for us. And that is not the point either. Our philosophy and culture focuses on helping people to grow and understand themselves and the world so we can take better care of each other and of our vulnerable planet. There is much to understand in this time of great changes. We therefor take the concept of cultural exchange very seriously.

this was my first worlpackers experience and it was great!
the work is fine, it’s mostly chopping vegetables and dishwashing so not the most fun but it is what they need help with - also they are flexible and with the work hours.
the interaction with the actual community wasn’t much since they all work many hours everyday so it was only a few moments at dinner, but still was fine.
biking around in the nature and to the lakes is very nice.
the best part of the experience is meeting the other volunteers, there are many coming and going so it’s a great opportunity to meet new people.

I enjoyed being there and I really liked working in the cafe, as there are also different shifts. However, I found the compo toilets a bit awkward, but it was fine for two weeks. But if you have a problem with odors, you should be aware of this. If you had any problems or other concerns, you could always go to the people in the community:)

I really enjoyed my time here! Every member of the farm was so welcoming and kind, and made me feel right at home. I found my accommodation on the farm to be really cozy (I shared a room with two other female volunteers), but it does take a day or two to settle in. In terms of work, the tasks were clear and hours were observed. Hours were 8:00-1:30 with a half hour break included, and the tasks weren't tough, but you have to be willing to get your hands dirty! Overall, it was such a peaceful week filled with nature and community, and I'd highly recommend this experience :-)

Since this was my first Worldpackers exchange and also my first solo trip, I was a bit nervous at the beginning, especially because I can be quite shy. But from the moment I arrived, everyone was super welcoming and friendly. I got along really well with the other volunteers, which made the whole stay even more enjoyable.

The dorm was different from what I had expected (e.g compost toilets), but in the end it was totally fine, I just did not know about it before applying. The work at the café was good, I especially enjoyed helping out with the B&B rooms and food was always delicious.

It has been a great experience. The volunteer were kind and friendly and I spent good time with them. There are different cities that you can visit when you have days off. I was 3 weeks and I felt fine all the time. If you like the nature and quite places is a good choosing :)

Fue una gran experiencia . Las voluntarias fueron amables y cercanas. Pase buen tiempo con ellas. Se creó un grupo bonito. Hay diferentes ciudades para visitar. Disfrute las 3 semanas. Recomendado si te gusta la tranquilidad y la naturaleza :)
