Enjoy a farm stay at our small farm house in rural Masaka
The experience
We are a goat, crop and coffee farm in rural Kasaala village of Masaka district, Uganda. As our project is now still at its very beginning and our long term goal is to be a sustainable farm that produces varied crops and a good breeding goat farm, we urgently need people who have experience or knowledge of goats, coffee and maintenance work.
We are looking forward to starting bee keeping and if you are interested you can help there too.

Rules
Please be aware that you cannot expect funding for your activities from us or our initiatives. It might be possible that we have a project going on in the field you want to engage but please consult us in advance. In the past we also had volunteers who did their private fundraising to realize their projects. But there is also plenty of work which does not require any money! So you can decide what suits you best and any new ideas are more than welcome. Just let us know :)
We are still growing and every year we start new projects and enter cooperation with new partners. Volunteering here is not like any other structured program – we are very flexible and it is up to you in which activities you involve yourself. If you want to volunteer with us or have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask. Come and visit us!
