The Experience
We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to join us on our small-scale farm, located in the stunning landscapes of Lofoten! For this position, we are especially seeking volunteers to help out with keeping our family farm house clean and planting/weeding/harvesting in our kitchen garden. In addition, we run an airbnb where we need help with housekeeping, and you may be asked to contribute for example when we have events at the farm.

I had a great time at the farm. Åshild, Gisle, and the whole family were really nice and attentive. I absolutely enjoyed experiencing the Christmas period with them. The working hours and free time were well-balanced, with plenty of opportunities to learn new things and then enjoy the rest of the day. Lofoten has amazing nature, so it was great to explore it with the other volunteers.

I did not feel welcome by the hosts and the tasks were against my values. The other voulnteers were amazing and made my stay as nice as possible. They assured me my arrival was the worst time to join the farm and they all love being there. I truly belive them and maybe it just was bad timing for me..

Hi Sara,
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We're genuinely sorry to hear that your experience with us didn’t meet your expectations.
Every volunteer's perspective is important to us, and while we don't believe your experience reflects the atmosphere we strive to create—or what many others have shared—we're constantly learning and evolving. Your feedback will be taken into account as we continue to improve how we welcome and onboard new volunteers.
Best wishes,
Åshild
