Akasha Farm
We live on a 6.5 acre farm that is majestic & magical. Any one who has ever visited has been blown away by how beautiful, calm, peaceful & quiet it is. We are a fun loving & open family who enjoy meeting new people & sharing our awesome property.
Volunteers can expect to be treated with respect. We have had hundreds of volunteers on our farm over the years & we've only had one incident where we had to ask someone to leave. As long as the terms of the arrangement are being executed, you need not worry about your time on our farm.

About the experience in: Sunshine Coast Regional District, Canada

Johannes and I had a great experience at the farm and we definitely recommend this place. Tyler as well as his wife Lucinda were very heartwarming and openminded people. Hours and tasks were clearly communicated. Tyler and his wife also invited us several times for dinner, hikes etc. Just make sure to cummunicate clearly what you need for meals. We enjoyed our time very much and we are both still missing Odin!

All in all, my friend Leni and I had an amazing time at the Sunshine Coast. The farm is beautifully located in nature. The working experience was fine. Working hours were respected and the tasks were easily done. However, there have been some communication issues. Our stay would have been better if rules, boundaries and expectations had been stated clearly at the beginning of our stay. The RV we lived in is a bit run down compared to the photos, but Tyler tried to improve the experience by initiating reparations. Thank you for inviting us over to some amazing dinners and thanks for the stay!

Thanks for staying with us. The only time Kat brought us an issue was about us changing her starting hours. We honoured her request to give as much notice as possible. On day 2, we came home and found 4 volunteers cooking in our kitchen without our knowledge or permission. Volunteers have their own cooking facilities, or we cook for them (which we did many times ) and invite them to join our family for dinner. Our existing volunteers knew that, so we gently clarified that for Kat and Leni :-)

The Gray family is a very friendly, trustworthy and committed. I enjoyed my stay so well and was able to learn and benefit a lot from the tasks and work I did. I was able to see and visit the nature and the coast, which is not far away and easy to get with bus. The big city Vancouver is close aswell. If you search a Host and Property in nature, peace and silence you are on the right place, sourounded with good people, varied work and animals like dog and chickens. I wanna thank the Gray family so much and I am greatful for the trust and time.

Take a break from the city noise and reconnect with yourself. The farm location is superb. You are in nature but 10 minutes away from town, and just 5 minutes away from the beach and nearby stores. Work is fair and working hours are respected. Tyler, Lucinda and their kids are a beautiful family and they will sometimes take you over for delicious meals, and wonderful adventures. You will get a cozy and private place by the creek with relaxing nature sounds to spend the best nights you didn't know you needed. I would definitely recommend this place.
