Program Details

At Gut Boltnehof, we offer a unique opportunity for creative volunteers to live and work in the heart of rural Germany. We're currently inviting musicians and photographers to join our international team of 4–5 volunteers. Musicians can perform regularly for our restaurant guests, adding soul to our evenings. Photographers help manage our image archive and support our social media presence with fresh, inspiring content.

You'll live on-site, enjoy meals, and share daily life with a welcoming community. In addition to creative roles, other volunteers contribute to our kitchen, service, and organic farming. Whether you're looking to share your art, connect with people from around the world, or simply experience life on a working farm, Gut Boltnehof offers an inspiring environment for meaningful exchange and creativity.

Activities & Shift

Photographers will capture life on our farm — animals, landscapes, historic buildings, and cozy hotel rooms — and help us organize and update our image archive for use on social media and our website.

Musicians are welcome to rehearse during their free time and can perform 2–3 times per week, for example during dinner, around the campfire, or at a relaxed Sunday morning concert.

Rules

Keep the Volonteers kitchen and Volonteers laundry clean:-). Treat our guests and the community nicely. Be open minded and motivated.
