Short about us:

Our farm is an organic farm on which four generations of our family live and work. . We produce organic vegetables and raise our animals organically. Through all year we are happy to host you and to accept your help on the farm: when we prepare the land for planting and harvesting the vegetables we produce. We would like to invite people who love nature and the freedom of the great outdoors to our wonderful mountainside farm. We appreciate your help. In-short: We would be glad to host you. Please don’t worry if some of our family members do not speak perfect English. However, the most important thing of all is - we are here to learn from each other and have fun in the process.

When we share our home with you is also important to respect some ground rools of living and working together:
Please take care of a new home as your own 🥰, and that why we wish that also everybody is helping in every aspect. Because farming is not only work in the field, its much more than that.

Enjoy your staying with us every single minute and do help us with work on the farm.

Be aware that you are joining us and please try to live with us our life style which we have. Try to be a part of international family and family of volunteers.

Our family is not traditional, which you may have in mind. We are melted with our farm life style. And try to understand and observe, who we are.

Try do addapt to our life and to get to know it, To learn a new culture.
- discover the farm, visit the animals, visit the field, forest. We have 100 cows, 20 sheeps and goats, and hm ... maybe some mouse from the field, and fox in the forest, deer, ;) for animals we dont need help, since its very demanding work, and we have a team who is taking care of them.
- don't miss any beautiful sunset here
- visit the caves, coast, mountains, cities
- spend time with our family when we work or when you see us working. After working spend time with volunteers who are here. Time on the rooftop, looking at sunset, enjoying the time in big kitchen with International family with different ideas what life is. We all can learn a lot.
- thank you for reading our profile and we would be glad to host you

Wish you a great day and a lot of amazing travel experiences

Lots of love💕

On our farm is a life like a small comunity. We all live in same place, but also have our own space. We call it that a whole planet is staying at our home... We all work together But also separate, depends on the task on the day, but when you finish working it doesnt mean that we also (family) stop :) Please dont be dissapointed if the family members arent always around or inside the house. Be clear with your idea of what you are expecting and what we share here with you. 😊 Bogdan and our team are working through the day, Metka is taking care of kids and houshold and her job, so sometimes its impossible to see us in the house. So please spend time with us/ talk to us/ask questions - just do it, when we are working, cleaning... 🌻 There is always the right moment. It s the nature of our work, our lifestyle. We really try to take time for our family, kids, farm, volunteers, friends and also we need time for us 2: Metka and Bogdan as a couple. Day has 24 hours so we try to squeeze as much as possible in a day. Big hug and love for everybody...see u soon. But next to us you ll have a chance to meet amazing people (volunteers) from all around the world.

My experience was overall good! I volunteered there between November and December. So it was pretty cold, but we had heaps of fun with the other two volunteers (Andre and Nick) that were working there with me.

My experience was good! You do get to experience what it is like to live and work on a true farm! The kids are amazingly fun and all the animals are very welcoming! It was so cool to harvest and prepare the vegetables for the markets. The town is also so peaceful. During free time you can go on lovely walks into the forest and see the incredible Slovenian sunsets! There has been new changes in the program, so the volunteer experience is led by another volunteer. Receiving food tended to be an issue.. you have vegetables but eggs, bread, cheese, etc. You have to advocate to get. Still recommend

It was nice even though some details were off. Sadly not a lot of food was given. The work was fine. The host was nice,but he sadly didn't speak a lot of English. The nature around is really nice and there's a bunch of caves around.

The work is physical, but nice. Working hours were respected, just not when picking potatoes. Youll have your days off on the weekend, but there's no busses on these days, which is annoying. We didn't talk a lot to the family, but they were nice.

I spent two wonderful weeks on the farm. I really enjoyed the tasks (especially harvesting and cleaning vegetables), and there was a good group energy thanks to Celine! I learned things while being in the greenhouses and fields. I really enjoyed it (as long as it wasn't picking potatoes...). The surrounding nature is very beautiful. I was able to discover caves and hidden spots in the magnificent forest, enjoy the sunsets over the sea...
The dormitory isn't very cozy and warm, and the kitchen isn't very pleasant to stay in. The bathroom is sm
