Clearing brush, caring for/revitalizing fences, repair/restoration of buildings. Summer: Caring for families of bees, honey production and bee products, preparing plants and trees for pollenization (rape seed, acacia, linden/lime, poly-floral, forest, sunflower), production of queens, production of hive, care of the garden near the house. We cannot accept volunteers who are allergic to bee stings. Minimum volunteer stay: 2 weeks. Pastoral beekeeping demands a lot of mobility, the volunteer has to be prepared for sleeps in the nature, and short travels to various honey producing regions. We are looking also for WWOOFer for the hole beekeeping season. April - August. For students we offer collaboration with the ERASMUS program for livelong learning.
