Our large organic garden in lovely countryside in rural Speyside supplies food for ourselves and surplus currently for neighbours and friends. We have welcomed many WWOOFers over the last 10 years (all positive references) and really enjoy being hosts. Opportunities for learning are mostly in the vegetable garden - tending vegetables, cultivation techniques etc - but we also offer the chance to assist with and learn a variety of DIY and craft skills such as building maintenance on sheds, greenhouse, etc., baking and yoga according to interest.
Accommodation is in a wooden, 2-person cabin with access to facilities. Food provided, catering arrangements negotiable.
The nearest town is 2 miles away with good basic shops, ATM, chemist etc. Bicycles are available to borrow, and lifts would be available by arrangement or in the event of emergencies. Internet and mobile reception average. Can only accept WWOOFers with their own insurance!
Certifications: we don't use chemicals and garden totally organically, but are too small to register
Current projects: Shed building will be happening this summer, plus making new beds for fruit - raspberries and strawberries. These will be made on 'no-dig' principles.
