Ken, Sue, and Jason are an incredible family. Ken is smart and loves discussing interesting topics, making it easy to practice English. He's always helpful and plans great outings to explore Wisconsin. Sue is excellent at organizing volunteers and cooks amazing meals. Both are kind, generous, and make you feel at home. The farm is beautiful—a perfect place to enjoy nature, see animals, and find peace. The Bible readings and worship sessions are uplifting, and you'll feel like part of the family, meeting wonderful people from around the world.

I believe that I am a very lucky guy to have had the opportunity to spend 2 weeks at the farm Fam. One of the best experiences of my life. It is only a goodbye, not a farewell!

Volunteering with the children really touched my heart very deep because taught me to hear, even when a kid wasn't able to speak or even me. The girl I was taking care of, even she was blind, actually taught me to see the way she does it. I learnt from her to be more sensitive, to enjoy simple things, to sing all day, to get excited with a simple tune, to explore untiringly, to be brave. But she didn't realized how much she taught me and Im pretty sure I would never be able to thank her, because she speaks a more advance language than me, she uses her soul to express herself and it was AMAZING

Omg!!!! I loved my first Worldpackers experience with Ken and Sue! I was a bit nervous since it was my first time traveling alone, but they set the bar high. They were both so respectful, and I met many wonderful people who always made me laugh. While I was at the farm, there was a camp for people with special needs, and I had the chance to be a buddy. It was a very rewarding experience that I will cherish. If it's your first time traveling, I would 100% recommend these two beautiful souls. I also ate so much ice cream that I probably gained 10 extra pounds🤣. Thank you, Ken and Sue!🫶
