Description
For the last 2,5 years, we have been restoring a 100% solar-powered Catalan farmhouse from the 18th century. We are Oisin, Marie, Lily (the cat), and Luka (the dog). Over the coming year, we have several projects in the pipeline for both the 2 HA land and the main house. For example, we will maintain the forest, convert the pond to a pool, construct a chicken coop, create a water recycling station, fit wooden shutters and continue cultivating the veggie garden.

Autres infos...
The farm is in the middle of the forest bordering the natural park Montnegre i El Corridor. The farm is located within a 10 min walk from the village of Canyamars. The area is famous for its biodiversity, historical landmarks, and hiking/cycling routes. There is a local bus that goes from Canyamars to Dosrius (that has shops) and Mataro (that is by the beach and has regular trains to Barcelona).
