    Hey everybody :)

    Above all, I am looking for "mindful" people who I can rely on and who can also work properly and reliably. I am also looking for independent and self-determined people.


    Right now im lookin for help only for one day or for the weekend.





    For a long time, i am interested in permaculture, creating a food forest, sustainability and living in harmony with nature and lovely people. I planted numerous trees in my 20 sqms housegarden which grown up and thrive pretty well. Then i suddenly recognized, there was no more space to plant more trees, so i starded to look for a bigger space to plant.

    Luckily it didn´t take too much time for what i was looking for. I am allowed to lease a 3000 sqm garden for almost 5 years now. (at the beginning it was just a meadow)

    Since October 2017 I have been created a foodforest on 1200sqm and a smaller one 2021 on 500sqm -
    home for insects and all kinds of animals.
    There were planted over 50 fruit and nut trees and over 100 berry bushes / wildberry bushes, as well
    planted numerous of other plants.

    The VISION is to create a sustainable, biodiverse ecosystem. Creating a base, where people can get permaculture experiences, get special cooking experiences, get experiences of community life, get an insight into tiny house life, get motivated to create their own foodforest. Also a future base for workshops, tours, writing books, sales of natural products, etc.

    Things which I wanna do in 2024:

    - taking frequent icebaths
    - take care of the garden
    - workout, flexibility, healthy
    - growing vegetables
    - working around the Bauwagen and Wohnwagen
    - multiply plants

    It is best to work as early as possible, because so many lucky things can happen in one day. So if u are an early bird u fit perfect with the project. I am always starting in the morning around 8:00 am (in summer because of the heat earlier - then i am starting between 7:00am).

    Accommodation

    We have a little gas powered kitchen, an old but gold wood powered oven and an outdoor cooking place.


    I can provide 2 single tents, 4 sleeping bags/mats and 1 sleeping place in the "Wohnwagen". You can also bring your own tent or your hammock if you have one. There is a small solar cell for only 100 watt devices and usb ports for charging phones and stuffs. You can charge your stuff, if the sun is shining.
    There is no running water but there is a hydrant with drinking water quality.
    We also have a nice outdoor shower and 2 compost toilettes.
    Of course its possible to set up ur tent in a suitable place in the garden, if you need privacy.
    If you come in your van, you can park around the garden - (there is enough space) or u can park by the beautiful lake.


    Sometimes, I am sleeping in the "Bauwagen", sometimes in a room in the neighbor village.
