I had an amazing stay with Niki and Jens! From the very beginning, they made me feel at home and truly welcomed me as part of their family :) They are warm, kind and incredibly welcoming, and genuinely care about making you feel good. We had lots of fun playing board games together, which was a great way to connect! the farm is a beautiful, peaceful and relaxing place, and I really loved the lifestyle there. The work is varied and depends on the weather, what needs to be done on the farm, and also on what you enjoy doing. I'm leaving with wonderful memories and will come back as a friend ! 🫶

My experience in Assens with Nici and Jens was wonderful. From the first evening, they welcomed us warmly and made us feel at home. Their farm is a beautiful place, with chickens roaming around freely and Eddie, the sweetest farm dog, always looking after everyone. The work was fair and enjoyable. I mainly helped in the garden and took care of the pigs. I loved the shared meals, game nights, inspiring conversations, and their travel stories. Nici and Jens are kind, flexible and truly want to get to know you. I'm very grateful for this experience and would love to come back!

My experience at the farm was amazing! The work was always well explained and never too hard in any sense. The caravan was a good place to sleep and the farm has lots of beautiful spots, games and animals to offer. But the most outstanding part was surely the Hosts Jens and Nici. They are not only welcoming and friendly but always willing to help or give valuable advice. They tell amazing stories and have an exceptional knowledge and understanding of young people. They both cook excellent food and were always happy to play, drink or talk with us. I would be more than happy to come back!!!

The day, I met Jens and Nikki, I was warmly welcomed with one of the many great lunches I had during my stay. Food is a big culture on the farm and you learn a lot about food and especially the danish food. Always follow the rules for the order of the Danish hotdog!Everything at the farm is extremely relaxing, imagine having coffee and looking out into a field that looks like it never ends, endless greenery all around. I helped out with Various projects on the farm like renovation and garden. I am extremely proud of the pumpkin patch I made. Big Thank You to Jens and Nikki for your kindness.

Jens and Niki were super welcoming and helpful from day 1, they were always so kind and made sure you were comfortable and had what you needed at all times. All the tasks you do on the farm were new learning experiences for me - quite hands-on but all contributing towards a mode of authentic, slow-living and self-reliance. Really valued their perspectives on peserving old methods. Throw in some stunning scenery surrounding the farm and you've got yourself an amazing time. A small tip - do get on top of that before you come as it affected me the last week or so of my stay!
