Beschreibung
Our not-for-profit project is the brainchild of Paul & Yvonne, a Dutch couple (in our early 60’s) who emigrated to the South of France in late 2022, to get out of the corporate rat-race and become self-sufficient in food, water and energy.
We have bought a 5ha 'green valley', surrounded by forests, in the South-West of France, close to Montauban (50 km north of Toulouse), to build our farm/food-forest, based on near-to 100% renewable (solar) energy and near zero-waste!
Based on the concepts and ideas of Stefan Sobkowiak, we are building a permaculture orchard with a large variety of nut and fruit trees and various species of berries and herbs. All our 1-year edible food (salads/tomatoes etc.) is available from our ‘no-dig’ vegetable garden. A part of the valley is for a small animal-friendly farm with 4 donkeys (1 baby), 6 hens, 6 ducks, our 2 dogs and 2 pigs.
With more than 40 volunteers since early 2023, we have managed to build almost all infrastructure for the animals and plant 350 trees and shrubs in the permaculture orchard.
We hope you will join us on this mission! Paul & Yvonne -

Was noch ...
Our eco-farm/orchard is in a secluded, private valley, although only 5 minutes by bicycle to the town of Monclar-de-Quercy (with some basic shops, pharmacy, bakery and a small supermarket). At less than ½ hour is the beautiful medieval city of Montauban. Nearby are many towns with lovely farmers markets, with the one in Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val being the most famous one. The Mediterranean is a 3 hr drive, as is the Atlantic and it is also only 3hrs to the Pyrenees. As a weekend city trip Toulouse or Bordeaux are easily accessible by TGV (high speed train).
To get to us you either arrive by high-speed train (TGV) in Montauban (where we can pick you up) or airplane in Toulouse; from Toulouse is a 30min train- ride to Montauban where we can pick you up. -
