Ella and August are the best hosts; from the very beginning I felt really welcomed by them and by the other amazing volunteer. The place and surrounding area are amazingly beautiful, and the animals are lovely. I really enjoyed my time there; our time together chatting, the delicious and healthy meals, the night sky, the cycling trips to the lake, and so much more. I also really enjoyed working with them and learnt many new skills. I feel so grateful to have been able to live this experience and meet these incredible people. I highly recommend this place if you love nature and good company!

My stay at the farm was wonderful. For my first worldpacker experience, i couldnt asked for better. Both Ella and August are such a good, caring and smart people. I shared a cozy room with other lovely volunteer during my stay. I really enjoyed the work we did. They always made sure, we have enough breaks and that we felt okay. The week flew by so quick, during our free time we visited Tallinn or took bikes to see near lake. Ive learnt a lot from this experience, i recommend 100%. You could really feel the good energy from this place. Also cute dog, a cat, horses and chickens made us company

My experience at the farm was great! Ella and August were the kindest hosts, they helped make every day feel memorable and it was a pleasure to experience their way of life. There was lots of flexibility with the tasks and hours, and everything was clearly communicated. The countryside is quite charming and perfect for a peaceful getaway. I would recommend this to any travellers interested in experiencing life in Estonia.

I had such a great time with Ella and all of her wonderful animals (August was out of town). As a host, Ella is kind, flexible and very open towards different needs and wishes. I also learned many things, from knowledge about mushrooms to Estonian history. It was my first worldpacker experience, and I could not have wished for a better place to start. We built a wooden bench and Ella showed me the local forest. the farm is an absolutely beautiful place, where one feels at home immediately. Only downside is, that you'll want to stay for longer. Would most definitely recommend.

As first experience in a farm, I couldn't ask for more. Ella is a passionate young woman who works with edible wild plants. I have learned a lot from her but also from her partner August. August is a wood wizard, he knows a lot about it and he is really good in working with it. The place was a real paradise on earth. The tasks were mainly working the land, harvesting, working with wood and helping Ella and August. I have learned many new things. And Hobe (the dog) made my time in the farm the best because he's welcoming and loves the cuddles. So totally worth it!!!! :)))
