The Experience

We are one of the more experienced certified organic farms and have taken volunteers from all cultures since 1991. We teach a vegetarian and accept a vegan lifestyle with respect for nature and our fellow man. Our lifestyle is simple and wholesome. For many years we have created an environment showing a way to live without stressing nature and while sharing it many people have found friends here who also care about the enviornment.

It was my first time volunteering and this experience beat my expectations. I learned a lot about organic farming and sustainability, I met great people that I already miss and I enjoyed the amazing natural surroundings of the farm. I really recommend it.

Anders is a great host, since the beginning he was really nice and communicative. Working and contributing in the farm has been one of the best experiences I've had. I reconnected with the earth and with the others volunteers as well. I enjoyed cooking with fresh vegetables and loved the pizza days. The working hours pass by really fast and you end up wanting to work more, or going to water the plants. The farm is very well situated, close to a river, a lake, Uppsala and Stockholm, which is very practical when having a free day. I totally recommend Anders' farm and I would love to come back.

Ramsjögard was a nice place for my first experience on a farm, i've spend a great time here. Still in November many things to do and the tasks were manageable once you get used to it. I learned about working with vegetables, sustainability and self-sufficiency. Thank you so much for this opportunity. I can recommend this place, Anders is a friendly and passionate host. :)

It was my first experience with Worldpackers and I'm happy about how it went. I can recommend the farm! I honestly didn't expect farm work to be as exhausting but that's just because I never did it before probably also because it's pretty cold in November. It was fun though: learning about sustainable farming , living and laughing with other volunteers , … Also the working hours are fine. Anders is kind and fun and he's so passionate. You can learn a lot from him! The house is like it's said already old and I needed to get used to it. Feel free to message for more details :)

I'm really glad that I choose the farm as my first Worldpackers experience. I felt welcomed and safe during my whole stay. The work was very interesting and varied thus I never got bored by it. I learned a lot from Anders and the other volunteers about cooking, sustainability and CSA.
