Informationen

Beschreibung
The micro farm is ten minutes drive from Ennis CoClare. I'm originally from Dublin but have lived here for the past ten years. I have three daughters the youngest is 8 year old and two older daughters who live in Dublin The Micro Farm includes a vegetable tunnel, a willow plantation and much more. It's a busy house with interesting projects on the go all the time. I'm a vegan and enjoy cooking but I don't have a problem if people want to eat meat but I'd prefer not to cook it myself. I enjoy nature, interesting challenges and culture. I live a quiet life in a relaxed house. I enjoy conversation and music.

Was ist das?
Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
Travellers will be totally immersed in the Irish countryside and culture. I'm a violin maker/craftsman with a lot of eco building experience and am happy to share my knowledge, I'm a very easy going person so there is generally a very relaxed atmosphere which is conducive to learning. I enjoy exchanging ideas and would hope that those who come here share the same enthusiasm.
Arbeit
There are nice projects on the go at the moment, garden work, organizing the workshop etc etc.
It's important to add that I believe this should be an equitable arrangement whereby it should be a good experience for everybody.
NB. I am really into cooking good food so it's important that you are able to cook too. We would expect everyone to be capable to equally contribute to the the weekly meals, which I pay for of course : )
Gesprochene Sprachen

Unterkunft
Double bedroom, not en suite. There is a big shared bathroom with a nice shower and an open plan kitchen with comfortable livingroom with wood burning stove.
Was noch ...
I don't have a TV You are free to use our two bikes, the town of Ennis is thirty minutes cycle away. Ennis is a small lively town with a lot of traditional music in pubs. I drive to town most days so you are very welcome to come. Smokers welcome but not in the house. It's a great area for walks and cycling. I can collect from Shannon Airport which is very close.

Vom Workawayer (Emma & Harry) für Host

This workaway was not what we expected, but we enjoyed our time here and learnt a lot about Veganism and a more natural way of living. We loved the chilled out atmosphere and varied jobs (weeding, painting, clearing). Brian was an awesome host and was always keen to explain what he was cooking and demonstrate new, imaginative ways to cook. If you… read more

Vom Workawayer (Matthieu & Camille) für Host

Brian was our first experience in volunteering, and we think it couldn't have been better for a first experience. Live with Brian is very easy AND very pleasant : he is listening to you, always calm and his bolognese is the best of the world (and we are not kidding you).
During the evenings, we learn a lot about the Irish history & culture : it… read more

Vom Host für Workawayer (Matthieu & Camille)

Matthieu & Camille were a pleasure to have as workawayers. They stayed for five weeks and transformed the garden and polytunnel working very hard even when it was raining. They were very easy going and good fun to have around the house. Camille makes amazing crepes and the best onion tart I've tasted and they have a great knowledge of good French… read more

Vom Host für Workawayer (Kerstin)

Kerstin was a fantastic help this summer. She was more than willing to do all the tasks we asked her to do and even learned how to light the stove properly, something not everyone is able to do. She is a very discreet person so is very easy to have around, most evenings she quietly read her book by the wood stove. We didn't see any of her Karate… read more

Vom Workawayer (Kerstin) für Host

I had a really nice time at Brian and Martas place.
There is always loads to do, either levelling the ground or painting the fence or helping with the polytunnel. But you have to keep in mind, that the project only started, so there's going to be a lot more work in the following summers.
Even though the place is in the countryside you have the… read more

Vom Host für Workawayer (wei)

Rachel is a really nice person to be with. She was willing to do everything she was asked to do with a smile and enthusiasm. It was lovely to have someone from such a different culture living with us, if only for a short while. She was very independent and on her days off wasted no time and visited as much as she could in CoCare and Galway. She's… read more

Vom Workawayer (wei) für Host

Marta and Brian are so friendly and also their cute little girl! I learned a lot of farming work and experienced the relax life in countryside. Both the meal and life here are so lovely and healthy. I really have a great time here! This is the best choice if you want to experience the real Irish mixed Spanish culture.

Vom Host für Workawayer (Janna)

From the start Janna was very friendly and hard working. She was able to give us great advice in many areas of the Micro Farm because of her interesting background. She was lovely with our little daughter and helped willingly when needed. We enjoyed talking and laughing with her. We hope she returns to Ireland soon as her heart seems to belong… read more

Vom Workawayer (Janna) für Host

Brian and Marta are lovely people and I enjoyed my time at their place. Their little girl is a sweet bundle of energie and I miss her a little bit :-)
The work I did was mostly fun and I specially enjoyed cutting the wood. A big highlight for me was the meeting with the travellers and to collect the chickens. Hope the ladys are fine and lay… read more
