The three weeks I've spent at Philip's the farm was my first ever volunteer experience, and it honestly couldn't have been better. I felt part of the family and was treated that way. All the family members are amazing people, who are always kind, helpful and cheerful, every one of them has their own personalities with different virtues. This part of Germany is also one, that made me feel like I'm in a dream with all the freedom in the world. (Köln and Bonn can be also easily visited from there.) I would also recommend this place if you want to practice some german.

Had a great time with Oliver and his family. Every day I looked forward to helping out on the farm with something new. Tasks included bring water to cows, weeding, fencing, moving animals, feeding animals, building stuff. Accomodation is in a trailer and I recommend you bring a sleeping mask as there is no blinds and some slip on shoes to walk to the bathroom. Food is typical german food so bread and cheese. Would definitely go back again!

This was my first experience with Worldpackers and I couldn't imagine a better start. All family members are kind. Oliver and Dana made me feel welcome since day one. Days are always busy — they take care of three girls, the farm, house chores, and outside jobs. It's inspiring to see so much happening daily. I helped with some construction and farm tasks. They give simple instructions and lots of freedom to get things done. I had a trailer to myself. Sunsets are always mesmerizing! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out :)

If your looking for somewhere to immerse in the German culture and also nature, you're at the right place. I had a great experience there. The food was great, with meat from the farm, and we met a lot of people. We took care of the animals every morning, picked up horse poop, cooked for lunch, did the dishes, built fences with Oli for the cows, digged a hole, cleaned the house, the car, and the tractors. We also spent a lot of time with the girls who taught me German ! The place is 30 minutes by foot from the nearest bus stop, then 50 minutes by bus to the city. You can explore easily by train

This experience was really enriching and interesting to have. If you are looking for a place where you can be part of the family and be able to experience the life on a farm, Its the perfect one. If your goal is also to work surrounded by Nature and animals, It's also the perfect place ! Oli and Dana were really good hosts and they provided everything we needed for our stay. There is also a great exchange you can have with the locals and if you want to learn German It's also a really good environment for that. Naïm
