  Beschreibung

  **We love having people round, but we travel a lot for our music career so we're not always available. Send us an email and we'll see what's happening. If we're unavailable, we can try hook you up with one of the other fun people in our community. **
  
  We're Brenna and Charlie. We have just finished building a strawbale home and light earth studio in an intentional permaculture community in Denmark, WA. We're a 15 minute walk to the centre of town (20 minutes on the way back - it's a big hill, but it's a nice walk through the forest). We have extensive gardens, loads of veggies and fruit trees, and all kinds of projects going on.
  
  We are both artists/musicians and permaculture educators and we're happy to share our knowledge.
  We have planted hundreds of trees, we used permaculture to design our block, we use sociocracy in our community design, we grow heaps of food, and we have built our own home out of straw and clay.
  
  This is a trans and queer-friendly space. You'll be happy to know we are not down any conspiratorial rabbit holes.
  
  Life is full of interesting creative and sustainable projects, and we'd love to share that with you.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  You'll get to see how two artists live who are passionate about climate justice.
  You will also get a taste of small town Western Australia, and or what it's like to live in an intentional permaculture community.
  
  You'll learn a bunch about permaculture, and how to cook and eat from the garden. We're avid fermenters and love wild harvesting and preserving seasonal abundance.

  Arbeit

  The projects we're working on are varied and we keep things interesting. Ask us what we're up to - recently we've been making garden beds, building drystone rock walls, mulching the common land food forest, building a netted orchard, weeding and maintaining the land, and preserving the harvest from the garden. Sometimes there's just a lot of weeding and mulching that needs doing - we'd hope that the experience of being in this magical community and special part of the world compensates for any repetition in tasks.
  
  We love when people bring a can-do attitude and enthusiasm, and if skilled carpenters, natural builders, photographers or other handypeople want to take on their own project like building an outdoor kitchen, documenting our site, or creating a floating island in our pond, there are loads of projects like that available.
  
  Sometimes we will work with you, and other times you'll be working independently - this depends on our work schedule and energy levels. When we're working together, we often work from 8am till lunch time, then the afternoons are yours to do what you like. Sundays are the day off, and if you want to go on an overnight hike or something we're pretty flexible. We provide all meals for you while you're staying here - sometimes we'll eat together, other times we'll either cook for you or provide you with ingredients if that's your preference.

  Unterkunft

  Accom depends on if we have other guests or helpers staying. The most basic is a large tent with comfortable bedding, and access to studio bathroom. The next level up is a gorgeous little tiny house - it's got a double bed and a desk by a big window, but it has low ceilings and is for short people only. Then we have a beautiful little house truck called Jolene, with kitchenette and double bed, and the fancy digs is our studio with kitchen, bathroom, loft bed, verandahs.
  
  If you have your own accom, we can offer a place to camp in the beautiful mari and jarrah forest, with a basic compost toilet, use of the studio shower, and with power. You can choose if you want to camp near our house, or 100 m away from our house in the forest for more privacy (and more wildlife).
  
  Send us an email to see what the options are.

  Was noch ...

  The town of Denmark is a stunning part of the world with beaches and forests all around, and is one of the must-see places in WA. It is a small town, so there is minimal local transport, but you can get here from a bus from Perth or Albany. Hitch hiking is safe and pretty common. There are great surfing beaches around and lots of local walks. We're an hour from the Walpole wilderness with huge old growth trees, and you can hike the best parts of the Bibbulmun track from Denmark.
