We are Cetin and Kim, and we live together on an organic farm in the mountains near Antalya. Cetin founded the farm, and Kim joined him later. Today, we are developing it together with respect for nature, animals and the people who visit us.
We grow organic avocados and olives, as well as lemons, oranges, pomegranates and other fruit. In the future, we would also like to grow more of our own organic vegetables. Healthy soil, careful growing and a responsible approach to the land are very important to us.
Several large livestock guardian dogs live on the farm, as well as cats, chickens and geese. The animals are an important part of everyday life here. Anyone who would like to take special care of the dogs should have experience with large dogs and be calm, attentive and responsible around them.
The tasks on the farm change with the seasons. They can include work in the fields and orchards, caring for trees, harvesting, watering, animal care, light repairs, and helping to keep the large farm area clean and tidy. During harvest time, there may also be opportunities to process and preserve fruit and other farm products.
Sometimes other projects come up too, such as practical, creative or digital tasks. If you have a particular skill, experience or idea that you would like to contribute, please tell us about it. We may be able to find a project that suits you and the farm’s needs at the time.
We would like to give WWOOFers an honest insight into everyday life on a sustainably run organic farm. You can learn about avocado and olive growing, harvesting, caring for animals, seasonal food and practical farm work. At the same time, we enjoy learning from the skills, ideas and perspectives that people from different countries bring with them.
Guest accommodation is separate from our own living area and located directly on the farm. There is one room with two single beds, a private entrance and its own bathroom with a shower. A second room has three beds, including one double bed, and a separate entrance. Its shower and toilet are in a small bathroom building immediately next to the room. This bathroom building may also be used by guests staying in a campervan or tent; camping is possible by prior agreement. We always discuss the exact room arrangement before arrival. Bedding and towels are provided.
Guests have their own shared kitchen and a terrace where they can cook for themselves, eat together and spend time with each other. There are no fixed shared mealtimes with us. Depending on what is happening on the farm, there may sometimes be shared activities, conversations, outings or even a meal together, growing naturally out of daily life.
We provide fresh vegetables, eggs, dairy products and basic staples such as pasta, rice, flour and oil. Whatever is ripe on the farm is included as well. Fish and meat are rare here. WiFi is available across the property and is normally suitable for video calls and personal online work.
We value an open, calm and respectful atmosphere. In your free time, you can relax on the farm, explore the mountains or discover the surrounding area.
