Hello, are you interested to join us in our organic+ vineyard? We love our beautiful vineyard which is centrally located in the Netherlands. It is an organic-plus vineyard, because we only use compost extract in order to have an optimum soil. We never use copper, pesticides nor insecticides. We work with local volunteers. Especially in the month of July we need more hands (maybe yours?) in the vineyard. We like our vineyard to be a place where people feel happy in contributing to an end product of high quality. We welcome motivated people who like to work and who want to join Johan in the daily activities for max. 6 hours per day. All tasks are manual and easy to learn, e.g. the advancing branches must be guided in the correct way, the plants get small bags to protect against birds, cleaning the area, maintenance work, etc. There is never a dull moment…! Wwoofers sleep in a nice basic accommodation: our renovated old wagon (two beds). Shower and toilet are located in the nearby barn. It gives a feeling of camping. We are happy to prepare healthy and tasteful meals for you. We have two bikes wwoofers can use to enjoy the surroundings. On www.wijngaardelplacer.nl you will see nice images of our vineyard and don't forget to visit us on Facebook. Important to know: no smoking, no drugs and at most a modest alcohol in or outside our premises.
