  Description

  Hello, my name is Ane Mari and I'm from Norway. I have traveled the world a few times. Now we are starting a new adventure on this property in Cordovilla, Tobarra in the state of Albacete. We want to focus on self sufficiency and cultivation of a forest garden and looking forward to meet like minded people to share this long sought after dream...
  
  It is a very peaceful place without many nearby neighbours. We are refurbishing the swimming pool this spring and will have it ready by the hot summer. We will have a lot of focus on plants and establishing an appropriate design so if you like this, you are in the right place. Dryland subtropical fruits are of main interest. There are biking tracks in the region for those who like this activity, but you need to bring your own bike for now :)

  Aide

  We are making a nursery, and planting a forest garden with perennials and annuals. We want to organize bio construction courses, yoga retreats and other courses with time. The property already has 35 olive trees that need pruning, some almond trees, 2 huge fig trees and some vines, grenade apples, but we will like to have a great diversity and plant pioneer species for shade and biomass.
  We will have bio-construction workshops and will need help with these projects, maintenance in the house, cooking and some cleaning.
