Details
Description
We are a family of 7, but all the children are away now. They come from time to time, on week-ends or on vacation. We are into permaculture living on a 350-tree olive grove. We speak French, Moroccan, English and Spanish. We have traveled a lot and are used to hosting a lot of people from different countries in our place.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Help with Eco Projects
Gardening
DIY and building projects
Farmstay help
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are French and Moroccan and speak several languages. We have spent one year travelling around the world and have learned a lot about development in rural areas. Today we are involved in rural development projects and often work with people from villages everywhere in Morocco. We are mostly involved in an eco-project with a berber village an hour away from our farm.
Help
We are living on an olive grove south of Marrakech. There is always something to do outside because we are into permaculture trying to improve our environment. It is not hardwork but you need to love gardening whatever your experience in this field is. Our 5 children are living abroad and come from time to time.

We only spent five days on this beautiful farm, helping out with building a dome of sand bags which was quite heavy work. But we were well fed, every meal on the farm was amazing, we got to try different kinds of traditional Moroccan foods and more clementines than we could count. We also had the chance to go hiking in the Atlas mountains by… read more

Megan, Garner and Olivia, their daughter, are really nice people. They are hard-working and dedicated. They mostly helped with the garden and the olive picking. We had great talks together about life and travelling the world. Olivia is an amazing teenager with a kind of maturity you would expect from a grown up. We highly recommand them.

We very much enjoyed our time working with Karine and Ahmed's family at their homestead, near Marrakech. We found them to be a hard-working, genuine and caring family. They are well-travelled and enjoy discussing it and sharing stories and I would like to say we made a nice connection with them, and hopefully we will stay in touch. The meals were… read more

They live in a very special and cozy place.
I learned a lot of the French language, ate delicious foods, listened to a lot of good music, shared the best of a new friendship.

We really enjoyed working with Karine at her house. The place is absolutely beautiful and the kids are lovely. Working with Brahim (the gardener) was very interesting, he didn’t understand any English and we didn’t understand any Arabic which made the whole thing even more fun! We helped build a fence and teaching the children a bit. The whole… read more

We had a wonderful and enriching 2 weeks with Karine, Ahmed and their lovely family. They live in an olive farm, with panoramic views of the atlas mountains, and are involved in some exciting projects, at home and with a local village - which is well worth a visit! We couldn't recommend them enough as hosts - especially if you are a family like… read more

Justin, Tamzin and their children were great. We had a wonderful time with them. Justin is hard-working and can help in many fields and Tamzin is very good with children. They are really easy-going people and we spent two wonderful weeks with them.
