Beschreibung
We are a loving family of 3, with many rescued animals in a soon to be self sufficient farm just above Nice, south of France (Colomars). Being the 6 th generation in the same home, we wanted to give a new turn to this 2 hectares property with permaculture design. We are just minutes away from the sea side in a beautifull spot on top of a protected natural site with extraordinary biodiversity. (Vallons obscurs de Nice)
Our surroundings are being loaded by concrete, the challenge is to show that nature can be very generous in many ways and that we need to protect it. By creating this sustainable economic model, we hope to give a sense of feasibility for everyone in the world.
Our job is to grow and harvest medecinal plants for infusion, herbal or flowery waters and essential oils. There is as well David, growing and selling vegs.

In 2020, we acquired a 25 hectares property, with a huge farmhouse to rebuild, in a breathtaking spot, North of Nice (90km) where we will be picking and growing medicinal plants and herbs as well, but mountain varieties.
There are 2 rivers, and the farmhouse is in the middle of the mountain with the absolute silence, but nature noise. Heaven.
We will be in between two places until the mountain farm is ready to welcome us all year round.
For now, as the bridge has been taken away, threre is a 25 minutes walk from the road (1.3km) to get to the house, in the future, we will manage to finish the trail.
We need help on both properties, to plant, seed, harvest, cut, mix, saw, .... take care of the animals and our daughter.

Take care all.
