The Experience

Scaket is a small organic farm in which Permaculture, Biodynamic, Synergistic and Regenerative farming works and reasons respecting Nature. With this philosophy, we cultivate vegetables, old fruits and some aromatics, managing everything with the help of our bees and our hens, ducks and geese free to roam under the orchards. We sell directly to the public and at local farmers' markets. The accommodation is about 2 km from the orchards.

This experience was truly a positive exchange - Sasha loves to share his knowledge and ideas about sustainability, organic farming and local culture if you are interested and engaged. I felt instantly at home at his house, his farm and with the other volunteers. And his animals are the best!!! Sasha is very attentive and makes sure that both life at his place and work at his farm feels like a safe and open space through open communication. Furthermore, he is extremely generous and helpful - he took us to eat local food, showed us "his world", and introduced us to local people and farmers.

Farm life is physically demanding —especially during summer. Expect to sweat a lot! Sasha is the chillest owner I've met. He encourages open communication and wants you to ask questions—whether it's about harvesting or reporting damage. I made small mistakes, but he stayed calm and patiently showed me the right way, even if we had to ask twice. Tips: Wear long sleeves/pants—some plants cause itching and there are bees 🐝. Bring a hat for sun 🌞. Know how to bike—farm's 2.5 km away 🚲.

I had a wonderful and unforgettable stay—like a dream. Many thanks to Sasha, a responsible and caring host both in daily life and work. He looks after his community, fosters connections among travelers and locals, and creates a warm, supportive environment. Equally importantly, in his work, he shows members the concept of organic and sustainable work, shares and teaches them about the operation of organic farms, which has taught me a lot, and has raised awareness and recognition of organic farms in his own way!
