Description
I live with my familly (brother, dauther, grand-dauther, etc) and my friends on a big propertie of 35 acres in the south of France near the Spanish boarder. Every one and each of us have an individual home.
We are working to create a place to live and share in communitty and to create several differents spaces like a garden forest (witch we start this winter), some new places to welcome travelers and groups of works. We really need some help because nature is prolific and we are overwelmed by all the work of cleaning. If we can do this we will have time to create beatifull spaces and developpe the place.
We have 3 wood trailers to host you and a camping sanitary facilities. You will work with me or my dauther (Sarah) and her baby girl Stella or with my son in law Akim or with one of my friends who live here. We can speak a good english and spanish (Akim is Spanish and another friend).

The main help is to cut back the overgrowth of nature in the differents places.

We dream to build a bread oven near the collective place.
My son in law will learn in june 2020 how to build tiny home named Kerreterre, round houses made with lime and sand to say quick and we will create some in the propertie.
