Family farm
Västernorrland
Enjoy beautiful countryside in the north of Sweden! You are asked mainly to do weeding but I´m also making new land to grow crops and we take care of a meadow with wild flowers. I also pick wild berries. Only 3 train-hours from Stockholm, I arrange pick-up. Close to the sea the farm is in a beautiful setting with forest, hills and small bicycle friendly paths. There are 7 houses on the farm also to take care of. You will live in a small or a large traditional cottage close to main building. Sometimes there are horses and sheep on the farm. There is a restaurant 1km from farm. Traditional Swedish food, we eat meat but we (together) can cook for vegetarians.
Owner (woman 60+) is authorized guide and knows a lot about forests, flowers, history and gardening - you will learn a lot!
Organic methods: This is a small, private farm with vegetables for own use. No pesticides used.
Internet access available.

This was my first wwoofing experience ever and I'm glad I was here at iJuni with Lars and Lotte. I had a really good time, work which I really enjoyed and also free time for some tours with the bike and to the lake, in the town etc. Thank you very much for being so friendly and to let me be part of your family in this short time :-)

We have shared a lot of great moments with Lotte and Lars !! They gave us the opportunity to discover Swedish history and culture and also the life in the countryside.
It was our first time as wwoofers and it was a very very good experience with very kind people. We have learned interest things and the work was nice, always with a great coffee break ;)
Thank you for everything and we hope to keep in touch with you !
Cloé and David
