VOLUNTARY ACTION DAY in the Organic Farm (28th Sept 2009)

The organic farm in Šempeter Pri Litiji (near Litija) welcomed volunteers from the Club of Volunteers for one day of volunteering.

We had the chance to get to know more about organic farming in this beautiful remote place up the hill, in the middle of the forest.

We did help on the every day task in the farm: we cut invasive grass and picked up "repa".

In exchange of our work we had really good fun and we got a lunch prepared by the friendly owner.
