Take care of our garden.
The experience
Join us from May to June to bring our garden to life! You'll be weeding flower beds, preparing strawberry and vegetable fields, sowing seeds, and cut grass.
In July and August, you'll water, weed, and harvest berries and apples, turning them into jams and cider. September and October are for prepping for the next season.
Beyond 25 hours of gardening, we ask for 30 minutes of daily cleaning to help keep your accommodation tidy.

Activities & Shift
Work is mainly done during WEEKENDS. I have a position as a teacher in Uppsala that is another city where I work during the week. To many roses have been weeded away when volounteers tried to work by themselves.
Rules
The Volounteers must discuss with me exact arrival date and time with me BEFORE buying tickets. Suggest the best flights for you to Arlanda. From that date we discuss how and when you can arrive at the farm. You either stay in my apartment In Uppsala first or take the train to the farm, this can not be decided earlier than 5 days before arrival.
