My time at the farm was full with nature and knowledge. The work was diverse and all the other workers were super nice! Vessi knows a lot and will want to teach you a lot... If you want it or not. Sometime that can be a bit rough... There is definitely some improvement to be done on how to approach and work with the volunteers but it is a place that deserves a try if you are interested and committed to sauna and changing your eating habits and lifestyle.
