Our closest preference of activities take place just outside your door. It is our farm life combined with Sweden’s nature. At the Södra Gård farm we have a thriving chicken coop/tractor, a growing vegetable garden and food forest, and many many projects to build. Guests can stay with us for just a holiday or combine their free time with our daily duties and projects in return for great BBQ’s or picknicks. Many hands make lighter work and at our permaculture farm we are always happy to have more hands. It is even possible for you to come as a workaway. We offer you housing while you offer your help every day! This way you will have a holiday in Sweden, will have free time besides your jobs and free housing/food! How great is that! If you would like to know more about this possibility, please contact us directly through the page and have a look at our Youtube channel where you can meet us to see what this job offer entails.
Just around the corner at Södra Gård
If you take a hike of 15 minutes towards a lake close to us you have the possibility to spot many, many birds! In April/May you will find cranes for example, but in May/June you will see a couple of red-throated divers just along the shore. As a bird watcher both are a must see. We also have a yearly nest of predator birds. We often see buzzards hovering our farm. They always try to steal our chickens.
On the property itself you have the possibility to pick all kinds of berries and mushrooms. We bring you a basket and a berry picker so you can collect the delicious food mother nature has given us. Cantharelles, raspberries, wild strawberries will fill your basket.
