Description
We live in the Hills near Bologna, in the historical area of Monte Sole park.
Here we live in a community composed by 2 families with children and a couple.
We shared some common spaces, but each familiy has their own appartament and private life.
We have a big garden with trees, vegetable gardens, some animals (chickens, goats, cats, donkeys).
We also are looking forward for people competent in fruit growing, disbranching and so on.
In the spring time we need people interested in organic agricolture and farming to help with the vegetable gardens.
One of us, Elena, is starting a social project in the agricoltural field.
So you are really welcome!
