The experience

We always need help with our daily life. The main sector where we need help is feeding and taking care of animals : mostly feeding pigs, preparing feed, but also feeding chicken, rabbits, sheep etc.
Pigs get fed twice a day (morning and evening) the rest just once a day.

Also, we have plenty of renovation work or in spring/summer gardening work to do.

If you want to work with us you need to be used to work independent,

Program Details

We like to treat you as part of our family. We usually have lunch together and sometimes even dinner :-) Once the kids are in bed we love to talk about the world.
We work hard but if we find someone who takes care of the kids and we can take some time off - we love to take you out for some mountain adventures.

We love it, when people get independent making feed and feeding the pigs, putting straw down etc. - work hours are about 2-3 hours in the morning and another hour sometime in the evening - during the day you can take off :-)
