The Experience

Our natural garden is a refuge for various plants and animals. Your task would be to help maintain this garden and create additional habitats. Fruits and plants from the garden will be harvested and processed, and I need your help with this. The animals residing here value your care, gentle strokes, and also appreciate cleanliness. Would you like to be able to create your own medicine cabinet from nature? I'd be happy to show you how!

I spent one week here with my friend. This was my first experience with Worldpackers and I had a really good time. The moment the farm picked us up from the train station, we felt like part of the family. We spent 4 hours or less daily working in the garden, the rest of the time the farm and her daughter showed us beautiful places in the neighborhood, we played with their lovely animals (like Pumba, the wild boar) and made salt with herbs and ointment for muscle pain together. the farm knows so much about herbs and animals in the nature and is ready to teach you everything. I was sad to leave.

I spent a wonderful week at Carolas place with one of my friends. Our tasks were mainly to move some wood and stones under the garage and to take care of the animals. Her garden is like a fairytale and playing with her boar felt also like being in a tale. the farm is a selfless, kind person, who truly cares about nature and the wellbeing of animals. She even took us on some adventures and gave us handmade gifts.

I worked in the garden and worked on a construction project. Hours were respected, and I got to experience the local culture!

Staying over at the farm's was a worthwhile experience. It was my first experience with Worldpackers and it was hers as well. Because I took a short break, and must get back to work, I only had to choose to stay for a week. I wish I had had more time there. Felt like family already. She picked me up from the train station (Pressig Bahnhof) and as soon as I arrived at her home, there were warm welcomes from an animal friend (Pumba, young wild Boer). As an animal person and a person who loves gardening, this was a good experience for me. Highly Recommended (Not much space to write my review 😀).
