| I am Martina from Switzerland. I stayed at Heidi and Dave's for 2.5 months the summer of 2010, and was their first long term woofer. Every day was unique. Their place, their animals and their lifestyle are burnt deep in my heart. So are Heidi and Dave themselves. I'll never forget what those two have done for me and I am looking forward to see them again. |  |
| “Hi ! My name is Samuel and I am a student in biotechnology engineering in France like Emma ! I’m a circus man, always juggling even if I ride! I was Heidi & David’s WWOOFer in July 09. It was a wonderful month; riding in a national park, to be in the nature with their Canadian horses … it was so magic ! I just would like to come back !” |  |

| My name is Emma and I am a student in biotechnology engineering in France. I stayed as a WWOOFer at Heidi and David’s farm in September 07 where I found a really lovely place with extraordinary people who became very good friends. I really appreciated this unique atmosphere, a spirit in osmose with nature and a exceptionnal understanding with animals. I love their Canadian horses, they are so brave and so fun to ride, especially Pippin !!! As I am coming back to Canada to study this coming year, (2008) I am looking forward to having good times there again! |  |
