The Experience
We are a family of 5. My wife is from Transylvania and grew up in an off grid community, until she was 10 years old, using a bartering system, exchanging goods, produce and physical work. I was born and raised on the California coast and moved to Virginia as an adult. Our two boys were born in Virginia. When they reached the ages of 3 and 5, we thought we would expose them to a different culture and smaller community life, so we moved to Hungary.

Staying with the farm family was interesting and I had a warm welcome. They live in a nice house in Tök, growing their own food. There are many projects to help in and learn from, feeding the animals, planting fruit trees, working in the garden. You can also play with their kids, who are friendly and kind and curious to learn about new people.

Felippe is an amazing person with a great attitude and demeanor. He was instrumental in a farm to table event that we hosted, in his role as chef. All of our guests were extremely impressed with the quality of the food in the 5 course meal that he prepared with ingredients gathered on our farm and from locals. He visited while a large group was here and his personality kept everyone in a good mood. He took ownership of preparing meals for everyone and set a positive working example. He was attentive to our dog and helped out in the garden, watering every morning. He also did a fantastic job applying linseed oil to freshly sanded beams and floor boards in our newly renovated living room and bathroom. We can't wait to visit him and his wife when they open their own restaurant.

Martha and Tim are good people. They tried to make us feel always at home and we learnt diffentent things that surely will help us in the future. They have wonderful kids, they are talented and respectful. We enjoyed playing some fun games with them indeed. Martha cooks perfect and if you enjoy local food, you are lucky because the food is delicious 😋 About the work we know now how to do some small things regarding gardening. This place allows you to connect with nature, get fresh air, to enjoy watching the animals and meet other international volunteers. I highly recommend it.
