We have our own cafe and farm store where we sell our homemade jam chutney marmalade juice and so on from our own garden. We have goats hens rabbits and horses that we are working whit. We also have an apple juice production where people come whit their apples and we make juice from them. And we have bees so we are taking the honey from them.
Working with the animals, driving the horses, working with the young horses teaching them to be good draft horses. Working with the bees and how you handle them. If it’s apple season, we are working a lot with making juice of the apples. And also teach them to take care of the fruits and vegetables.
You may eat breakfast lunch and dinner together with us. We have a little cottage on our farm where they can live by themselves.
We always start the day out with the animals feeding them and giving them water. Then it’s breakfast time, some days I go to my normal work (also work as a nurse) then they have free time and we work more on the farm in the afternoon. Otherwise, we start up with cleaning for the animals and then we make projects like harvesting something or making fences for the animals making apple juice and so on it depending on the time of the year. And what the projects are, we normally eat lunch at 13 and then we often do something inside or more easy work. If I work as a nurse I come home at 14 or 15 and cook dinner and then work at the farm afterward.
Here we love to take out the horses or the dog in the forest, we have really lovely walking lines in the woods here. We also have our own lake where you can go fishing or swimming, we have four nice lakes in an area of 4km.
We also like going to the Ski Center if it’s open in the winter.
