Program Details

You will be given tasks that match your experience and skills. Sometimes we work together on projects where you might learn something new — or maybe we’ll learn something from you.
We regularly have horse training sessions and courses, and there are several animals on the farm that need daily care. The tasks are very diverse and change depending on the season and what needs to be done.


Activities & Shift

We are looking for someone who can work independently after receiving some initial training on specific tasks. We have our own routines to follow and may not always be available throughout the day.
Afternoons and evenings during weekdays are usually our busiest times. On weekends, especially in winter, we try to make the most of the daylight hours.
We prefer volunteers who are flexible and not too focused on when exactly we work during the day. Of course, there is no night work.


Rules

No partying or use of illegal drugs.
No smoking indoors.
Quiet time starts at 11:00 p.m.
