Howes Homestead

Put in some honest tasks either digging and mixing soil, tending to the vegetable garden or nursery, feeding/milking the goats, planting a couple fruit trees or building a fence from locally collected trees.

Walk the homestead and great the chickens and ducks as you make your way to the back garden. Our family is multi-lingual. The children are fluent in English and Hungarian, and my wife is also fluent in Romanian as well. We are big in crafting with leather and wood and play music together most days (drums, violin, banjo, recorder, harmonica, guitar, accordion, etc) . We also like to organize farm to table events in the summer.

I had a unique experience at the homestead as Marta and the children were not there during my week stay but Tim was welcoming and accommodating. However, he was quite preoccupied with work meetings, making him unable to be as hands on with facilitating a community experience.
Unfortunately we had to cut our stay short due to another volunteer.
The work was easy and caring for the animals was enjoyable. I pastured and milked the goats, fed all the animals, watered, weeded, collected bugs and harvested fruits and vegetables. There’s not much in the village to do but there is a nice winery.

Very bad experience - I recommend to not waste your time going here. I had to leave after just 3 days. They’re looking for more of a slave than a worker.

I'm very grateful for this experience. I learned a lot about living in an ecological environment and the importance of connecting with nature.
The host gave us a warm welcome, and his wife guided us with patience and dedication during the tasks, which we truly enjoyed. The kids were friendly, creative, and fun.
I loved sharing my artistic culture with them and also learning from theirs. I also enjoyed taking walks with the Dog, Mocca , and feeding the goats.
I highly recommend this place to disconnect from the fast-paced city life and live something authentic.

I had a very good experience with the Howes family. From the beginning, Tim made us feel very welcome and at home. Marta was patient in teaching us the tasks we had to do, and thank you for feeding us, the food was always plentiful!. The children are very friendly. I really enjoyed walking Mocca in the evenings.
I learned about eco-sustainability, I was able to connect with nature, and I truly recommend this experience!.
Something to add: the toilet is a dry one, it was a new experience for me. At first, I had my doubts, but I understood its purpose and got used to it.

I had a wonderful stay. We ate a lot. Marta showed us traditional dishes, which were delicious. Tim was very friendly. He was open to teaching us about permaculture. The work was relaxing. The house was very comfortable, and the children were very friendly. Mocca was the most affectionate. And the goats were beautiful.
Marta combined the colleagues very well, we were 3 Latinos so it made things easier when we related.
