Participants will have the opportunity to actively take part in construction projects, bearing in mind that most farm buildings and furniture were crafted by the community. If you possess artistic skills, we welcome your contributions to enhance the aesthetic appeal of our farm. In addition to farm-related tasks, you'll play a role in tending to farm animals, tending to the garden, and participating in the construction of a new horse barn.
