Why I became a WWOOF Host

We enjoy meeting international and domestic travellers and it’s great for my kids to have the interaction with others. It is very helpful to have people participate in the farm work.

Organic/Biological methods we use

We do our best to be as organic and environmentally friendly as is possible and we are striving to do better all the time.
Certainly what we make from scratch is better quality, better tasting and more fun. It helps us teach our children how to live well and healthier and gives us satisfaction and happiness.
