Work exchange in the Spreewald

The Spreewald southeast of Berlin is known for its narrow waterways, punt tours and famous pickles – and sits right on the doorstep for Berlin-based helpers. Farms around Lübbenau, Lübben and Burg need support in the garden, with the cucumber and vegetable harvest, and with animals; guesthouses and holiday farms need seasonal help. In the neighbouring Fläming region, with its gentle hills and tree-lined avenues, families and small farms also offer room and board for help. Ideal for anyone who loves canoeing, nature and closeness to the capital – free accommodation, even for just a long weekend.
