Beschreibung
We are a Japanese/French family of 4 with 2 big shepherd dogs, goats, bees, and chickens. We live in a beautiful, secluded little valley where we renovate old Japanese traditional buildings, do permaculture (swales, various earthworks, fruit forest, mobile chicken farming, etc). At the moment, we are trying to develop food stuff based on eggs, berries, medicinal plants. We love music, high culture, philosophy, real art, cinema, board games, family hikes, archery, fencing, sports.
NOTE ON AVAILABILITY: We would need someone from around mid July, 9, or 10th.
