I spent one month at Ank and Vincent’s farm, and it was a really great experience! The farm follows permaculture principles, and everything is done by hand, which makes the work very authentic and connected to nature. The regular tasks included weeding, planting vegetables and flowers, harvesting for the weekly baskets, and taking care of the compost. Every morning I also fed the chickens and watered the plants in the greenhouse. Sometimes there were different activities, like fixing a fence or attending presentations made by students. There are also cows on the farm, which add to the lively atmosphere. Ank and Vincent are very kind and welcoming hosts. They always make sure there is something useful to do and take time to explain and share their knowledge. The work rhythm is never too hard, and there is a good balance between work and free time. Even though I had never worked in a garden before, I learned a lot — about permaculture, teamwork, and the importance of observing nature. We often spoke in English and had interesting conversations about our cultures, discovering both similarities and differences. It was a very enriching experience, both practical and personal. I’m very grateful for my time there and definitely recommend this place to other WWOOFers!

Being at Arthur’s place for three weeks was truly a great experience. Despite my imperfect English, he was always patient and helped me make myself understood. There was a lot of work on his farm, but he was always very caring and empathetic toward me, never putting any pressure on me. He is truly an incredible and fascinating host who always has stories to share and cooks wonderfully. I can’t thank him enough for his hospitality and kindness. I’m really happy about this experience, and about having been able to contribute to some of his projects and help him out. Thanks again to him, his daughter, and his adorable animals!

Review voor host: Ylvie Fros Van: Hassan & Narcis Onze tijd bij Ylvie was echt magisch. We voelden ons vanaf het begin thuis en hebben enorm genoten van het werken en zorgen voor de paarden — een prachtige en bijzondere ervaring. We kregen veel waardevolle informatie over hoe je met paarden werkt en voor ze zorgt, wat het verblijf niet alleen leuk, maar ook leerzaam maakte. De werkzaamheden waren divers en afwisselend, en het contact met Ylvie, haar familie en de andere vrijwilligers was altijd warm en prettig. Het verblijf was goed geregeld en de verzorging perfect. We werden zelfs netjes opgehaald én gebracht naar ons volgende WWOOF-adres — dat vonden we echt bijzonder attent. Voor Narcis kwam een droom uit toen ze paardrijles kreeg van Ylvie zelf. We aten regelmatig samen met de andere WWOOFers en vrijwilligers, en op de laatste dag hadden we een gezellig afscheidsdiner samen — een mooie afsluiting van een onvergetelijke tijd. Dank je wel, Ylvie, voor alles wat je met ons gedeeld hebt. 💫 — Hassan & Narcis 🌿

Kaag is a truly beautiful place — the farm is located in a charming village surrounded by stunning nature. I loved being close to the animals and taking part in the daily tasks on the farm. It was my very first WWOOFing experience, and I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction! Johan is a great host, and I really enjoyed discovering WWOOFing with him.
