The Experience

We need your help around our daily life (farm, house, garden). If you like to cook, that would be great, too. Usually, you work from 8 - 11 with the animals (cleaning, taking outside) and then in the afternoon (feeding, taking animals back). Sometimes, we have visitors during the day. Walks with our dogs are highly appreciated! You should not be afraid of being around big animals like camels or horses because you will really take care of them.

I traveled with my friend and my girlfriend and we had a life changing experience. First days can be tough, especially if you don't have any experience working directly with animals, there are lot of things to learn but it's an impossible task. Day by day you earn confidence with all the animals so don't be afraid of them, they are friendly and loving. We got to know each personality and we bond a lot with some of them. If you are vegetarian Manfred's cooking is not for you. But, Sabine's meals are delicious! Go to Lama Ose! Is a nice experience to be down to earth & appreciate countrys life

Sabine and Manfred cook deliciously; you always have access to the kitchen to prepare your own food if you want to. The tasks you need to do are feeding the animals and truly taking care of them—it's a learning process, especially if you don't have experience. They respect the established schedules. All the animals are beautiful, and you grow attached to them very quickly. Flip flops are necessary to wear inside the house

I was at the farm for three weeks, but I had so much fun it looked like just a couple of days. Volunteering here is a great deal to deeply connect with nature, but also to immerse yourself in Bavarian culture: Sabine and Manfred brought me very often to folkloristic parties where I had the opportunity to speak a lot of German. Tasks are easy, shifts are respected and falling in love with their animals is so easy! Last but not least, Manfred's cooking was exceptional. I definitely recommend this experience and hope to come back as soon as possible.

My experience at Sabine and Manfred's farm was peaceful and full of personal reflection. Although I came as a volunteer, I received much more: a cultural exchange, kindness, and patience. The farm, surrounded by animals and nature, is the perfect place to disconnect and gain clarity. I felt very welcomed by their friends. Manfred's food is delicious, and his apple liquor is absolutely 🤯. Would I recommend it? Of course, I absolutely would! I would love to return if I have the chance!

The farm has a variety of different animals and tasks to do. The day is normally divided into two shifts: one in the morning and one in the afternoon. It's a very unforgettable experience and I loved spending time with the animals! Normally, the hosts cook for us which is very nice and the food is delicious. Although they eat meat from the farm, they can also cater to vegetarians. Communication was a bit tricky in the beginning, but I figured as time passes it gets better :)
