Welcome, on our site.
We are a small organic farm near the city of Ljubljana. On the farm, we mainly deal with tourism, a riding school and work with horses. There is also some work in the field and in the forest. Here you can find horses, goats, donkeys, geese, rabbits, chickens, kittens, puppies and piglets.
The work is divided according to the season. We are young family of three. Husband Jaka, wife Klara and son Kristjan (6 years old).
Jaka goes to work and Klara works at home on the farm and also owns an online store. Farm work varies according to the season.

Above you can find descriptions of approximate seasonal jobs, of course they only differ depending on your experience and the experience you want to gain. You have to be independent and efficient for these jobs. If you don't understand something, you can always ask us. We are kind and loving, we gladly welcome anyone who wants to get to know our way of life and our country.
Let's just point out that most of the jobs are independent, because there is often no time - with the family and the online store. Therefore, we may recommend that you come to the farm with a friend (2 people). But if you are alone, animals are also great company =) If you come to us, you get a room next to the horses or our new log cabin awaits you. The toilet is separate from the room, and the shower is in our house (by the end of the year, the shower and toilet will also be in the log cabin).
The work takes place throughout the day, i.e. there is care for the animals in the morning and in the evening. Since it is difficult for us to set a fixed schedule, we often agree with volunteers that they work 5 days a week all day and then have two days off. We are happy to advise you and help you organize trips (if you want to go see some sights) We can lend you a bike or take you on a bus...You get food from us, but there is also a very good restaurant nearby.
In short, if you have any other questions, write to us here or to our e-mail.
(After sending a hosting request, if you change your plans and can't come, please remember to cancel your request, thank you!)
