The experience

We love hosting volunteers, especially those who want to experience real family life, learn new skills, and enjoy the peaceful rhythm of country living. 🌿

Our home is a whirlwind of kids, horses, and pets, full of energy and laughter. Life can get busy here, so we’re looking for adaptable and positive people who are happy to jump in and help where needed.

You’ll be treated as part of the family — sharing meals, conversations, and fun moments.
