Pod Dračím kamenem
Liberecký
Small family homestead located in the Jizera Mountains (Jizerské hory) Protected Landscape Area, near the cities of Frydlant and Liberec just a bit more than one hour from Prague. We focus on environment friendly farming, sustainable living. We aim for at least partial self-sufficiency. We are interested in traditional craftsmanship, permaculture, cheese making, tanning skinns and green building. We grow vegetables, keep sheep, goats, ponies, pigs, rabbits, chickens and bees, and take care of 7ha of land (pastures, orchard, garden, forest). WWOOFers could help with planting trees, building fences, shelters, with animals, garden, field, forest, housekeeping, household, cooking and many other activities ... but we understand the WWOOF project as well as an opportunity to meet interesting people, have fun and exchange experiences. Jsme malé rodinné hospodářství v CHKO Jizerské hory. Naším cílem je hospodaření v souladu s přírodou, trvale udržitelný život a s tím související alespoň částečná soběstačnost, vytváření zázemí pro osobní rozvoj, ohleduplná péče o okolní krajinu a spolupráce s místní komunitou. Zajímáme se o tradiční řemesla, permakulturu, výrobu sýrů, zpracování kůží a vlny, přírodní stavitelství. Hospodaříme na 7ha, chováme ovce, kozy, koně, včely, králíky a drůbež. Pěstujeme zeleninu, bylinky, zakládáme ovocný sad. WOOFery chápeme nejen jako vítanou výpomoc, ale také příležitost k výměně zkušeností.
Organic methods: We use only on farm inputs or certified organic on the farm.
Certifications: We are working only with natural product sin closed cycle, but for our homestead it makes no sense to be certified organic
Type of work: We are trying to make our homestead look nicer in this year.

The best way to our farm is to get to city of Liberec and then by train to Raspenava.

Hey everyone,
I spent 1.5 weeks at Alena’s and Hynek’s farm, and it was a truly beautiful experience for me (also my first WWOOFing experience). Alena and Hynek are amazing people, and they were incredibly caring. They have a lot of knowledge about sustainable small-scale farming, permaculture, and producing a wide range of products in a self-sufficient way. It was very inspiring, and I learned a lot.
The food was amazing as well, there was always something fresh to eat: fresh milk, yogurt from their cow, fresh eggs, and much more :) There was always something going on with the kids, dogs, and cats, so I never felt lonely, even though I was the only WWOOFer at that time.
The farm is located in a really beautiful region, and there was so much to explore in the afternoons and during the free weekend. Alena had many great tips on where to go and what to see.
All in all, I would definitely recommend volunteering at Alena’s and Hynek’s farm. It’s a truly valuable experience and hope that one day I will be able to come back:)
Thank you for everything!

The family is very friendly and welcoming, they explained everything to me (how to do my tasks) and gave me plenty of time to finish them. There's always something to do at the farm, I mostly helped with collecting vegetables, seeds and other greens, while also helping with maintaining of their huge property. It was a great experience :)

We spent three weeks at Hynek and Alena's farm, and it was an incredibly enriching experience! We took part in various activities while learning more about an autonomous way of life. All of this took place in a peaceful, natural setting, surrounded by fields and forests.

My time with Alena and Hynek was really great. Everyday life was very regular and it was really nice to be together with the other Wwoofers and the Family. I would recommend everyone to make a stopover in Raspenava.

I highly recommend visiting this amazing farm. Hynek and Elena are really nice hosts with amazing knowledge. I really enjoyed my time there working with Hynek around the farm and with animals. Also it was really nice to have really interesting conversations with both Elena and Hynek during diner or while working. On my free day i went hiking to the mountains near by (i highly recommend visiting them).
