The Experience

We have a beautiful house with rural surroundings and two rooms with kitchen and own bathroom free. We need help with household supplies, painting and decorating. We just bought the house, are still renovating it, and could use some help. But we're also hospitable and interested in getting to know other people.

Tom and Silke An amazing month with wonderful hosts! ❤️I spent a beautiful month volunteering with Tom and Silke. They made me feel completely welcome from day one. I learned a lot about repair work and truly enjoyed our amazing outings, scenic hikes, and visits to nearby towns. Everyone I met was incredibly kind. I am deeply grateful for Tom and Silke's warmth and hospitality. Highly recommended! ✨

I had a great time in the farm for my short stay. Silke and Tom will welcome you in like family and put you in a very comfortable room. Tom has a large workshop with every tool imaginable. Tasks were simple and straightforward – if you need clarification on any task, Tom would help you out. Hiking in the area is really beautiful and quite the adventure if you're with the dogs. Their neighbors are eager to engage with volunteers as well!

My two months at the farm were amazing! Tom and Silke are wonderful hosts—kind, organized, and always ready to help. The work was fair and enjoyable, and they created a welcoming, family-like environment. One of my favorite moments was my birthday on October 1, when they surprised me with a small celebration that made me feel truly special. Their dogs also bring so much joy and positive energy to the place. the farm is peaceful, safe, and full of good vibes. I'm so grateful for everything and highly recommend this experience to other travelers!

Here's a polished version tailored for **Worldpackers**, keeping it friendly, appreciative, and authentic: My Experience at the farm 🌿 My time at the farm was wonderful! Tom and Silke are amazing hosts—kind, organized, and always ready to help. I learned so much through teamwork, daily tasks, and being part of their lovely community. One of the most memorable moments was my birthday on October 1st. They, along with their son and some neighbors, surprised me with a small celebration that made me feel like part of their family. It was such a heartwarming experience!

Maurice is an incredibly friendly and helpful person. He is very compassionate and sensitive. He wants to take any heavy bag you are carrying out of your hands. And he is really strong and can carry heavy things, as he has proven here.
But he is not a man of many words. He also likes to be alone. He can fit into a team, but needs help to do so. We would have liked to show him more of Germany. But sometimes it meant more to him to be allowed to be alone. We respected that. We thank him for his h

We couldn't be more grateful to the entire the farm team. From the very first moment, they made us feel at home with warmth and kindness that exceeded all our expectations. Every day was an incredible experience: we learned so much, shared fun moments, and truly felt like part of the family. We are sincerely thankful for the opportunity to be welcomed this way and for everything we take in our hearts. We wholeheartedly recommend this experience with all our enthusiasm and love! Thank you Silke, Tom, Sandro, Yuna and Yomi 💗
