Description
Our family that constitute our community is composed of Omar, Mariem, slim and the little Zakaria. We live in our farm, where we are doing permaculture and eco-building. We have 5 dogs and one cat.
Currently we do not employ paid staff, all the work is done by our family or friends of our community.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
workawayers will be able to learn and practice permaculture, as well as the technical aspects of an ecological farm. The workawayers will also learn about the different species that are grown, such as trees (plum, fig, olive, etc.) and vegetables (tomato, potato, lettuce, chard, etc.). On the other hand, the workawayers will have some theoretical and practical knowledge about eco-construction.
Also, the workawayers will be able to discover the fauna and flora of the forest surrounding the farm and the local heritage of the region. Finally, the workawayers will get to know the local food, thanks to the dishes that we cook and share with them with love.
Projects involving children

Help
We have tasks on the farm all over the year, such as seeding, harvesting, irrigation, pruning, etc. In addition to farming we do eco-building. The work activities depend on the time of year and the agricultural seasons. But eco-construction projects are more important in the summer, while agricultural tasks dominates the other seasons

English: IntermediateThis host offers a language exchange
we are convinced that permaculture is an interesting context for language learning and languge improvement. In our community, in addition to speaking our mother tongue which is Arabic, each of us speaks one or more foreign languages. We can exchange this knowledge with the worawayers and learn new languages from them too.
Accommodation
Travellers will share our house, and they will have their own room. We offer meals to workawayers, which we cook with love
What else ...
In their free time, guests can explore the surrounding forest by hiking. Several tourist sites and nature reserves are accessible by public transport or by walking for the more courageous. In summer, workawayers can enjoy the Tabarka Sea, which is 40 km from the farm.
