Farm exchange in Denmark – We are a couple living at a minor farmstead on an island in Denmark (Mรธn /Moen). On a daily basis, we work away from home, but in our spare time and holidays, we love to work at the farm and explore the island. Mรธn island is Dark Sky certificated and is surrounded by beaches, cliffs, forests and walking trails. A true nature experience awaits you. The farm is somewhat located isolated and the nearest town is 4 miles away. Our lovely small farm/homestead is a typically danish house in the countryside. We have two accommodation houses and two barns.
We seek voluntourers who want to share an experience living “somewhat isolated” at a farm. For the season of 2020, we have two major projects: building a wooden shelter and putting up a fence for an outdoor pigpen. Plus some minor restoration projects
