Lyckans Gård was a wonderful first woofing experience. It was a pleasure to stay there.
In the morning and evening I had fixed routines like taking the dogs for a walk, cleaning and feeding the other animals. In your freetime you could take a bike to the nearby lake or it would have also been possible to borrow the car.
The accommodation in the Orangerie was great. Enjoying the time with the family was also nice. You could always feel that you are welcome and slowly become "a part of the family". I look back to some interesting conversations in the kitchen. Furthermore, I enjoyed to experience a traditional Christmas eve with their family.
All in all, Jessica and Stefan were great hosts who enjoyed answering all your questions and show you everything.

We spent four weeks on Lyckans Garden, it was a very nice time! The whole family and the animals are all super nice. We had our fixed routines every day in the morning and evening, walking the dogs, feeding the animals, cleaning, etc.
The atmosphere was very warm from the first moment and we always felt welcome and part of the whole.
We were able to experience some Swedish life here, we went to a Christmas market and to the church for the "Santa Lucia" celebration.
We are very grateful for the time we had here!

I spent six wonderful weeks at Lyckans Gård and I’m very grateful for the experience. From the very first moment, I felt welcomed by Jessica and Stefan. Their warmth, openness, and love for their animals and kids create a truly special atmosphere on the farm.
Every day started and ended with taking care of the animals, which I really enjoyed. Feeding them, walking the dogs, and being surrounded by so many sweet animals made the work fun and meaningful.
During the day, there were different tasks to help with, such as weeding, cleaning, or helping Stefan with building projects, which was a lot of fun. I really appreciated the trust and freedom they gave me in planning my day and weekly tasks.
I stayed in the camper, which was very cozy and comfortable. There was also lots of time to enjoy the countryside, go for a run, ride the horses, or spend time with the animals and the kids, who are very sweet and always manage to make you laugh. I also went to the Smålandet Moose Safari, which I definitely recommend, as well as to the second-hand store. I even got to join them for a Halloween party, which was really nice and fun.
The whole family (including Jessica’s parents) is very generous and kind, and the lovely chats we had made my stay even better.
All in all, I look back on an amazing time at Lyckans Gård. I learned a lot, felt genuinely welcomed, and had so much fun working with the animals. I would definitely recommend this place to any future WWOOFer—and I hope to come back!

We had an amazing time with Jessica and her family. It was our first WWOOFing experience and we couldn’t have wishes for a better place to land. They made us feel like part of their family and we had great chats.
We slept comfortably in the orangerie in the backyard, but there is also a caravan available for wwoofers.
The day started between 7.30 and 8.00 with feeding all the animals and walking their 4 dogs. (And ending the day the same way from around 17.00-17.30)
Besides that we had a variety of tasks, like painting a barn and some doors, removing a barbed wire fence from a field, gardening and cleaning. In the morning we would have a chat with Jessica to talk about what we could help with, and then we could plan our day ourselves for the most part.
We also had time to relax and hang out with all the adorable animals and explore the area.
Jessica and her family are not vegetarians like we are, but she made sure that we had everything we needed to have delicious meals.
All in all we look back on a wonderful time and we definitely plan to visit again 😊

I had a great time at Lyckans Gård and would recommend WWOOFing there! This farm is especially something for you if you love animals and like being around children. From the first minute, I felt at home and as part of the family. Most days consisted of taking care of the animals in the morning and in the evening, and during the day I could choose from a variety of tasks like painting, weeding etc. The accommodation is really good. The family and their animals create such a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes this WWOOFing experience truly special.

I spent two weeks with this family and I looked after the dogs and the other animals with another woofer. It was my first time and it was a very positive experience.
I could learn a lot about conscious practices of animal farming and life in Sweden overall. Love and respect for animals is clearly visible in Jessica and her family. Jessica and Stefan are really inspiring people.
Jobs included some painting, bring clothes that can get dirty in red paint. We could prepare our own food but the family also cooked regularly for everybody. I couldn’t recommend this experience more, especially to 1st time woofers who want to roll up their sleeves and help in this wonderful farm!
