Why volunteer on an organic farm?

Small and eco farmers often struggle to compete with large industrial farms. Cultivating the land in an ecological way can be more challenging, and production yields may be lower or more affected by environmental conditions, since organic farmers avoid pesticides and other soil-damaging products.

This is why organic farmers need help. Travellers who want to experience life close to nature, or people who want to learn about ecological farming, can volunteer at organic farms or eco communities. In this way they support the farmers’ work and learn the art of ecological and natural farming.

What are some examples of organic farm exchanges?

Volunteers who help and live on an organic farm can:

milk cows and goats
sow seeds
weed and maintain gardens
water plants and flowers
prune trees and bushes
collect wood
exercise horses
feed chickens and other animals
set up vegetable gardens and ecological cultivation systems
