Program Details

For each volunteer we can offer a cosy gypsy caravan with sleeping and self catering facilities. All bedding, cooking and eating utensils are included.
Just 100 m from the caravans we have an excellent shower and toilet block with powerful hot showers and a common room with free wifi. The caravans and common areas are fully equipped for self catering and you will also be welcome to join us in the house for some meals.

We are a friendly, easy going family and team of staff on the farm and we look forward to introducing you to Irish life, food and fun.

We welcome interesting visitors from all over the world so you will get to experience Irish farm life and culture in a peaceful and natural setting while also meeting new people from a diverse range of countries and cultures.

We have been welcoming exchanges and volunteers to our family farm for over 40 years (since I was a child) and we have always enjoyed sharing our stories and learning from the experiences of those who stay with us.

Activities & Shift

You will be trained fully in your first few days and we are always on site for guidance or questions. We prefer volunteers to be 20+ years old and be able to cook, clean and look after oneself.
It is a busy varied environment with a small close-knit team and we look forward to welcoming you to the farm.
