Beschreibung
If you are interested in an new experience , permaculture, with hard manual help an off grid lifestyle.fresh veggies from the orchard chickens and eggs, from the yard.
no chemicals or fertilizers are used, only fully organic compost which is made by the resident chickens and neighbors cow manure
When egg laying hens are about 12 months old commercial farms turn them into cat food since they have passed their prime
I normally buy around a thousand and redistribute throughout the community thus allowing them to live out their lives
It is amazing to watch their reactions when they first experience the sun on their feathers To see them actually scratching the dirt and eat their first worm
Keeping them safe is a major obstacle as foxes falcons and many other predators enjoy the free supermarket
We will also concentrate in planting trees so we can play our part in helping Mother Nature’s lungs We use well water and our own harvested wood for water and ambient heating. for 9 months of the year we also use a wood burning "potage'" for cooking.
during summer, helpers that wish to de toxify , are welcomed to partake in the juicing diet, using our organically grown veggies.
..and if you are serious, you can have your own patch of land, grow your own produce and be
creative.
We are also producing our own fruit wine, vinegar,medicinal herbs and dehydrating or fruit/veggies.
There are a couple of bicycles that the volunteers are welcomed to use Remember, you break you fix, you puncture, you fix. Stolen, you replace.
Bus stop to Biella and other areas is a ten minutes walk
An hourly train to Biella Torino or Milan leaves from salussola station, a thirty minutes walk
interested?
Closest train station is salussola. Approximately 2 miles from the farm.
Ask brother Google for details.
I don't need to know your life and ancestors history. Or your achievements/multiple degrees. At the end all useless here. Simply let me know when you are coming and when you leave.
Laziness is not tolerated.
I am not pc.
Let's leave snowflakes on mountain tops.
We are not able to host your dog, cat, pet snake, budgie etc..
Pse dont arrive after 7pm. I also have a life.
The farm will reopen for work away from the 19th September 2023
hope to hear from you

He is casual and keeps his house a friendly and comfortable place for everyone. The farm is developing within every day cause Marco surely has been doing a lot of work since he's bought it.… read more

We spent a wonderful week with Marco and Woofter. Marco is a great host, he has travelled the world and his stories are just amazing to listen to. We mostly helped in the garder preparing it for the winter, took Woofter for walks and helped around the house. Marco and Woofter, thank you so much for everything :)
