Beschreibung
We live on a small farm with 9000 m² of land. We, that's Ulrike, born in 1966, Niels, born in 1980, sometimes Claudia, and Ulrike's parents Dorothea (born 1930) and Bernd (born 1926).
We cultivate fruit, vegetables, potatoes and herbs, and we keepn chickens for eggs.
Our place was founded in 2005 as a "workshop for peace". Peace, for us, means more than the absence of war. It also means to stop cooperation with injust and life-threatening economical structures. Therefore we combine our "mind" peace work with manual peace work: a subsistence economy in solidarity with our fellow human beings, animals and nature.
When we did an analysis of our CO2 footprint in December 2019, we noticed that our small herd of goats emitted ~4 tons of CO2equivalents/year. Therefore, we do not keep goats any more since mid September 2022. We want to do more permaculture, more agroforestry and get more carbon in the ground. Instead of goats milk and cheese we want to produce more vegan sources of protein, like soy beans, lupins, hazel nuts and Amaranth. So we are currently in a big transition process.
Besides we are renovating the walls of our barn, as it is meant to be a museum of peace in future. Hopefully we can start with building the interior soon. If you are a native german speaker and like to do some archive work, there's always stuff to do in winter time - as we always like to have helpers here!
We live in a small village with a lot of interesting people, an organic cattle ranch, an organic food store, and there are lots of beautiful lakes around.

Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
We try to live a culture of nonviolence - in respect for each other, our animals, plants, and the surrounding nature. Volunteers can learn about that way of live, including practical skills, e.g. gardening. While we do expect everybody to help with things like cleaning and cooking, we are otherwise pretty open to your own wishes and preferences - like working more in the garden or focusing on a crafts project.

Was noch ...
It takes about 2,5 h to get here from the centre of Berlin by public transport (train and bus). We live in a beautiful area with lots of lakes, and good opportunities for cycling (you can borrow a bicylce from us), hiking or horse riding. Our village is between four small towns (Rheinsberg, Neuruppin, Mirow, Wittstock) which are between 15 and 35 km away.
