🇾đŸ‡Ș Hemberedskap: För oss handlar det inte om att bunkra konservburkar i panik, utan om att kĂ€nna sig trygg i att klara sig sjĂ€lv – med kunskap, gemenskap och lite framförhĂ„llning.

För mĂ„nga WWOOFare Ă€r detta en stor del av motivationen – att lĂ€ra sig om praktiska fĂ€rdigheter och ett enklare, mer sjĂ€lvstĂ€ndigt liv.
För andra (bland annat vÄra vÀrdar) Àr det bara sunt förnuft.
‹🇬🇧 What does it mean to be prepared? For us, it’s not about panic-buying canned food, but about feeling confident in your ability to take care of yourself – with knowledge, community, and a bit of foresight.

For many WWOOFers, this is a big part of the motivation – learning practical skills and embracing a simpler, more self-reliant life.‹For most hosts, it’s just common sense. đŸ’ȘđŸŒ

🇾đŸ‡Ș WWOOF betyder olika saker för olika mĂ€nniskor.

För vissa Àr det ett sÀtt att lÀra sig om sjÀlvförsörjning, beredskap och att odla sin egen mat,
för andra handlar det om att förstÄ den svenska kulturen, livet pÄ landet eller att lÀra sig praktiska fÀrdigheter,
och för mĂ„nga vĂ€rdar Ă€r det ett sĂ€tt att dela med sig av kunskap till en yngre generation, eller att lĂ„ta vĂ€rlden komma till dem istĂ€llet för att resa sjĂ€lva. 💚

✹ Och visst kan det ocksĂ„ vara en kombination av allt ovanstĂ„ende?

🇬🇧 WWOOF means different things to different people.

đŸŒ± For some, it’s a way to learn about self-sufficiency, preparedness, and growing your own food.
🌍 For others, it’s about getting to experience Swedish culture and rural life, or picking up practical skills.
đŸ‘©đŸŒâ€đŸŒŸ For many hosts, it’s about sharing knowledge with a younger generation, or letting the world come to them instead of traveling themselves.

✹ And of course, it can be a combination of all of the above.

“Wwoofing at Camilla & Petter’s farm was everything we hoped to do and experience. 
We learned so much in such a short period. Everyday at breakfast we discussed what to do and how. We felt very much part of a team, and they also challenged us to use our brains and be creative. Also they made sure we wouldn’t strain our bodies too much and that there was enough diversity in the tasks. 

The mostly homegrown food we prepared together was delicious. They were also very interested in our local kitchen and we got to make our own specialties. 

It’s really inspiring to learn how they live self-sufficiently, and they are very willing to share their knowledge and considerations on their decisions. 

We had our own apartment that we liked a lot. Around the house there are a lot of places to sit and chill out, and you have enough time and space to take some private time. 

They are fun and warm people and we really felt at home. We stayed longer than we planned because it was just so super!
We hope to visit them again on our way back to the Netherlands later this year.”

Den hÀr veckan har vi Àven besökt tidigare wwoofaren Cloés frö-gÄrd i SmÄland som förhoppningsvis börjar ta emot wwoofare till sin gÄrd redan nÀsta Är. Hon gav oss en rundvandring och berÀttade om processen att ta fram vilda fröer för förökning till Àngsodlingar runt om i Sverige. Fröföretaget Pratensis som hon och hennes man David tog över för ett par Är sedan startades av biologerna Inger och Mats Runesson. Stort tack för rundvandringen!

This week we also visited the former WWOOFer Cloé’s seed-farm, Pratensis, which will hopefully start welcoming WWOOFers next year. She gave us a tour and told us about the process of producing wild seeds for propagation in meadow cultivation projects across Sweden. The meadow seed company Pratensis that she and her husband David took over a few years ago was originally founded by the biologists Inger and Mats Runesson. Thanks for the tour, very inspiring!

Stort tack till gÄrdsvÀrden Mimmi för en hÀrlig rundtur pÄ vackra igÄr. En drÀktig fjÀllnÀra och en sydafrikansk get var ett par av djuren som bor pÄ gÄrden. Wwoofaren Hanja som varit pÄ gÄrden i 2 veckor berÀttade att hon skulle wwoofa vidare till vÀrmland, och sen tillbaka till ett community i södra Sverige igen. Lycka till pÄ fÀrden!

A big thank you to our host Mimmi for a lovely tour of the beautiful yesterday. A pregnant mixed-breed cow (I think it was Jersey/Mountain cow) and a South African goat were among the animals living on the farm. The WWOOFer Hanja, who had been at the farm for two weeks, shared that she would continue WWOOFing in VĂ€rmland, and then return to a community in southern Sweden. Best of luck on your journey!

Warm regards,

From WWOOFer Ysaline: “I spent three months in Sweden, and I loved every moment of it! Staying this long allowed me to see the season go by: from seeding, to transplanting, to harvesting. It was really nice to have such a diversity of tasks to do, you never get bored.
Most of all, every other week, I was very excited to harvest new varieties of vegetables and berries. It was also great to cook and eat all this fresh food that we had been growing ourselves.
The work at the farm is already super interesting, but then you also meet great people (the host, the WWOOFers, the locals), and live exciting moments: going to the sauna, hiking in the beautiful Swedish nature, celebrating Midsummer, bonfires by the lake...

Last summer was an unforgettable summer, and it’s definitively not just a memory! Back in my country, I have started to volunteer on local farms, it feels so good to be working outside in the soil again. And I will come back to Sweden for sure.

I’m so thankful to WWOOF and Angelica, my host, to have made this possible.”
