Økogård Ærø
We run our farm with a very positive atmosphere. We love working with nature and enjoy sharing our experiences. Ærø is a dreamlike, wonderful island in the Danish South Seas (Baltic Sea) with many opportunities to enjoy nature and the sea. We value a high level of self-motivation and interest in agricultural work.
We are filmmakers who originally lived in Hamburg, Germany. In 2020 we moved to Ærø to have more positive nature experiences in our lives. In addition to growing vegetables in our market garden, we started growing wine four years ago. We also launched the “Farmers Market Ærø” community project, which started in May 2024. Volunteers can expect to learn a lot about organic farming and winemaking in Denmark.

About the experience in: Søby, Denmark
New Zealand
The experience was amazing. Quiet but enjoyable. Guido and slyvia were so accommodating and made sure I knew that whenever I needed help that I could have it. The living arrangements were also amazing and allowed me to have my own private space. The vineyard itself is so beautiful and the sunsets are unbeatable. The island itself has do much character in each of its towns too!

Having the opportunity to volunteer in ÆRØ Vin, Denmark has been a life changing experience. Gardening in the farm was very rewarding and especially relaxing. I have learnt important skills regarding the preparation of the soil and seeds to be plant and also planting itself products to be grown when the session kicks off. It is remarkable to be mention that Guido and Silvia are incredibly talented and have been for a while home, they simply cared about their volunteers so well. The farm is placed in a spectacular place surrounded by beautiful fields, a lack and all the island is wonderful.

We stayed in the island for three weeks, Æro is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the nature. The house is big and immersed in nature, the rooms are really nice.
Silvia and Guido were really kind and nice with us and you can also learn a lot from them.
They also have adorable and funny cats.
This experience taught us lots of things about sustainability but also about life❤️
Totally recommended! ✨
