  Description

  We are a small family of three people (Christina, Christian and Emma) who lives on an extensive farm with the goal of self sustainability. We have chicken, donkeys, horses, meadows, forests and fishponds and maybe soon more animals.
  
  We try to do as much as possible by ourselves. That allows us to spend most of the time with the family. We both work at home. Baking bread, growing veggies, cutting wood, working around the house and farm… everything for our own consumption. The well brings water, the chicken lay eggs and the grass for the animals grows on the fields.
  We are very happy to be in that fortunate position :)
  
  Our lovely Emma (2021) is a little whirlwind. She is exploring and trying out everything. Most of the time she is running around naked … even when it’s cold outside!
  Christina (1989) is caring/loving/full time mum and loves gardening. In the last 2 years there was not much time left for the veggies. With the support of a workaway that hopefully changes :) She is a self-employed Yoga teacher currently on maternity leave.
  Christian (1984) is passionate dad and loves creating and building things. He is looking forward to have someone who helps f.e. with cutting wood, planting hedges or working around the house.
  
  We love to discover the world anew with Emma and want to show her how beautiful it can be to harvest homegrown onions or build a table from scratch, how enriching it can be to meet new people and cultures and work together on new projects or just work “together” by putting our values into practice. That’s why we are searching for your support at all levels – wherever help is needed.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  …life close to nature…organic food…relaxation…take time for yourself…being spontaneous…follow your heart…
  We love good food and it’s important to us to sit together around the table. Time off should not be left behind – free your mind with a good movie, go for a walk, meet friends, sit around the fire or play games.
  We don’t want to live within the treadmills of the system, but try to produce most of our food or firewood by ourselves. So you may get a different perspective on farming/living here. Maybe that’s what you can benefit from.
