Farm in Tromsø

www.instagram.com/kjaerenggard/ Here you can see pictures and videos from our fram.

If you want to stay on a lovely farm close to the city of Tromsø and experience midnight sun in summer and northern lights in winter, this is a perfect place for you. You can learn how to care for horses and other different animals (donkeys, goats, lamas, peacocks, muflons and much more). We also live close to a fjord, beautiful mountains and a lot of nice places that you can explore in your free time.

Right now we are looking a handyman who can stay for at least 3 months. from june 2024.

Please note that because of the regulations, we can unfortunately accept only volunteers from the EU area.

We usually have more volunteers at the same time who cooperate as a team and spread the work equally. You live in your own room and share bathroom with the other volunteers. We normally cook a dinner for everyone and you can make breakfast and lunch for yourself from the food in the fridge. We are trying to treat all our volunteers as family members and create good working conditions for them.

This was my first ever volunteering work with Worldpackers and it was definitely and amazing experience. Bjorn and Nina are very nice and friendly people, who make you feel welcomed. The work can be difficult in the beginning, but nothing that cannot be learned overtime. The accomodation was nice and cozy. And Bjorn makes amazing dinners almost every day which I will definitely miss. So if you love animals, nature and you are ok with getting your hands dirty, I strongly recommend applying to volunteer here.

My experience at Nina and Bjørn's mini zoo near the farm was truly one of the most enriching and rewarding experiences I could have had!
The work can be physically demanding at first, but being surrounded by beautiful nature and amazing animals makes it incredibly worthwhile. Nina and Bjørn are attentive, supportive, and always willing to face challenges together. They genuinely care about the well-being of their volunteers.
I learned a lot during my three months there and I am deeply grateful for everything they shared with with me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! See you soon! ❤️

Incredible experience!
Nina and Bjørn are lovely; you'll be hard-pressed to find better food than what Bjørn prepares! 🤩🤩 You really connect with nature and animals, especially the horses.
Norway is special, with incredible landscapes, lots of Northern Lights, very cold weather, and lots and lots of snow!
The house is perfect, and Nina and Bjørn are always attentive to your needs. In my case, they were very patient since my English was quite poor, and I'm so grateful for their hospitality. ❤️
Being with other volunteers makes the stay much more fun!
Highly recommended!

I loved my stay here! I was very excited to volunteer at Kjaereng Gard and take care of the wide variety of animals they keep there. Living in close contact with horses, pigs, donkeys, goats, sheep, llamas and alpacas (all extremely adorable) was truly special for me, as I felt responsible for their well-being and did everything I could to ensure they had a good life.

The landscapes and views of northern Norway are breathtaking, and there are lots of interesting things to do in the city, which is easily accessible by taking a bus from a station near the farm.

You should come!

I loved my time here in Nina's and Bjorn's farm ! The work is demanding but totally manageable after a few days. I you want to be in touch with animals, people from all over EU and great outdoors this is the place to be. I'm grateful to had this possibility to explore the norwegian moutains and countryside, wich start right after you step out of the farm :)
Bjorn's food is another reason to come here, i won't forget it anytime soon.
