Program Details

Our non-profit foundation campsite has been run by us for the last two years. We are Tor Magnus and Ingrid, and we live here with our two children Herman and Hedvig. Here, in the last 10 years we have been lucky to have many volunteers to help us with the daily tasks. Without the volunteers' contributions, it would not have been possible to run the camp and make the upgrades we have had in recent years.

Activities & Shift

We offer a stay in a social environment and we usually have many volunteers here at the same time. Depending on the size of the projects and how many guests we have, we are mostly a group of 4-8 volunteers. We are now looking for people who are handy, have technical or carpentry skills, like gardening and helping outside, are good at social media, have a good sense of order, can help independently and like to help as a team. We offer varied tasks.
