Monika and Jure and the most wonderful people! My time on the farm was so fulfilling, it is truly a wonderful spot. The hours are always respected and Monika truly cares about each volunteer, wanting to get to know and spend time with them. The whole family truly went above and beyond for us. From the delicious cooking of Monika and her mum, sightseeing in Celje, giving endless suggestions of what to do and giving so much time out of their very busy lives, and of course walks with the dogs. Be on time, clean, responsible and you will love this experience❤️❤️ thank you!

My experience was incredible. Monika was always very kind and did everything she could to make my experience incredible. She's also a great cook. The farm isn't in the city, but she always gave me a ride to the bus stop or train station so I could go sightseeing whenever I wanted. I have no complaints. Everything was incredible, and I highly recommend this experience. If you like animals, this is definitely the place for you. Thank you, Monika, for everything ❤️

This was a really unforgettable volunteering experience🩷! Monika was a great host and very helpful and understanding. She really put effort in to make everyone feel like home and we had great time together with her and the other volunteers 🫶 The farm, animals and the food was amazing, and we also had lots of free time to spend as well. The work was easy and despite the early mornings and sometimes working 5h without a break, I was still happy to help. Would volunteer here again☺️

It was my first time volunteering in another country. Monika is really kind and eager to to help, not only with the work strictly but also with providing you with pieces of advice on what to do in your free time and how to spend it effectively, should it be in the cities or somewhere in the proximity of the farm. I also had the opportunity to help her husband, Ure who is also very kind and helpful. You can also talk to him about anything and will help you should you need it.

I spent 2 nice weeks at Monika's and her familiy's farm with my boyfriend. Everyone was really welcoming and helpful, the tasks weren't really hard and Monika always gave precise instructions. It was a good, enjoyable first volunteering experience for us :)

Wow, what a wonderful first Worldpackers experience!!! From the moment I got there I was welcomed with open arms and felt how much care goes into the farm and its volunteers. Monika teaches all you need to know and the hours were fully respected. The hard work was repayed with Monika's outstanding hospitality - be warned: her cooking is the best! I loved joining for deliveries or dog walks as well as visiting the neighbouring farm or the family BBQ. Monika, I cannot thank you enough for such valuable, meditative experience with some amazing animals and amazing people. I hope to be back 🥰

I had a great stay at Monikas farm! The location was beautiful and the work was very well organised. We did the farm picking and weeding, either in the morning or split between the morning and afternoon and we got 1 day off per week. Monika was very hospitable and always made an effort to connect with every volunteer! We had a lot of free time which was mostly spent hiking, walking the dogs or going into the local town. I'd highly recommend this stay!

I spent two lovely weeks at Monikas farm and had a wonderful time there. Tasks were mainly the farm picking and weeding. The work starts early in the morning, and there's loads of free time to explore the surrounding area. Communication with Monika was great and she puts in a lot of effort to give volunteers a great experience. She happily includes you in activities like dog walks, barbecues, the farm deliveries and going for ice cream or sunset watching. I highly recommend this experience to be surrounded by beautiful nature, meet cool people and help a wonderful family out on their farm🫶

Monika, Ure, and Philip are so kind, welcoming, and helpful. The tasks are the same every day (4.5 hrs): picking raspberries and weeding. It's not hard work. Be punctual and productive. Monika is super organized, communicative, and timely. The weather is unpredictable, bring both long and short sleeves. The space for volunteers is spacious and comfortable, with a maximum of 2/bedroom. You'll need to prepare your own food most of the time, but everything you need is provided. There are many walking paths near the farm, and Monika will include you in her walks and activities. Recommended!

Lovely experience 🫶 I had a great time at the farm, would definitely recommend it! I was able to visit Ljubljana, Celje, Velenje and Vojnik. Monika was very supportive with giving rides and ideas for daytrips/freetime. She also organised some activities for the volunteers like breakfast at a nearby farm or sunset-watching with ice-cream. For work, i was doing the farm picking & weeding mostly, it is physical work of course but not too hard :-) Volunteers have their own "flat" with kitchen, bed room(s), living room, bath room apart from the family's home, all well organised. Hvala :-)
