Using helpx.net we've found a place to wwoof not far from Heideilberg and thought to give it a try.
It's absolutely amazing, we can't wait to come back! Already helped with harvesting the organic produce, participating in a box scheme, cleaning the barn, chicken house, basement, cooking meals, making jam, etc.
About the farm: it was established in Autumn 2014. Cultivated area is 2 ha and 0,8 ha greenhouse area under organic conditions (Demeter association). In spring 2015 they have started CSA (community supported agriculture) and has delivered their first vegetables in June this year.
''We grow more than 100 different vegetables and herbs to give our costumers a wide range of products year round. At the moment we try to establish a Seed Cooperation with some other nearby farmers.''- says Stefanie, one of the establishers.
