✔️ About us

The expansive 3,000-pyeong garden boasts the beauty of nature, with hundreds of species of trees and flowers, including pine trees, roses, chrysanthemums, and hydrangeas, all harmoniously growing together. This garden, cultivated for over 20 years in harmony with nature, will be opened to the public starting in 2025, providing a healing space for visitors who love nature.

The hosts of the garden are active members of the World Rose Association and the international group, Serbas. They are fluent in English, ensuring smooth communication with foreign visitors. Additionally, the garden offers an environment where Woofers interested in eco-friendly farming can work together and engage in meaningful exchanges while nurturing nature.
This special space is ready to welcome all those who love nature, and we look forward to sharing it with you.

This philosophy allows WWOOFers to experience the values of environmental protection and sustainability.

✔️ Organic Lifestyle

This is a space where eco-friendly agriculture and sustainable living practices are put into action in harmony with nature. Instead of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, we use nature-friendly methods, and we also reduce single-use items in our daily life, practicing recycling and composting. We share these philosophies and methods with visiting WWOOFers, offering them the opportunity to experience them firsthand. Hosts and WWOOFers engage in discussions about environmental protection and respect for nature, sharing the values of sustainable living together.
