Beschreibung
It's the beginning of our adventure...
We are now trying to become more productive and so the garden is our priority. We deal with it daily with trasplanting and seeding, harvesting and weeding, watering etc... Help is mainly needed there.
The plan is to start more beds in the garden by the spring of 2025, reaching something like 5000 m2.
We also have to set up a chicken coop, build the compost bins plus other little maintenance stuff…
The job is usually run from the early morning (5am to 8am) to the sunset (6pm to 8pm) with a long break in between -from 9am to 6pm - (this is working in the hottest weather, summertime, from June to September) where we have the famous "siesta time" ...time for you to go to the beach or chill or nap!
In spring and fall instead we work from 8am to 1pm. Some weekends you will probably asked to work if we have events, in that case you can plan your days off during the week.
In any case you will work always around 5 hours per day, 5 days per week.
After your chores you have plenty of spare time to enjoy the surrounding nature chilling around...
Let's talk better about food! We eat pretty much veggies, pasta of course, dairy products, meat and sometimes fish. We are omnivores, if you are vegetarian or strictly vegan, please be aware of this!
Breakfast is enjoyed in the morning with coffee, fruit, eggs, bread, butter, honey, and jams but of course, if you have preferences just name it! Then a pleasant lunch-break usually at midday. At 8PM (think flexibly) we dine.
You can be asked to cook sometimes, it would be fantastic to enjoy your specials all together!
All the chores are shared with commonsense (like washing-up, cleaning, setting/unsetting table), the personal ones instead (like to make your own bed and keep tidy and clean your room - to clean the bathroom after every use) are your responsibility.
Remember we are in Italy, enjoying meals together is part of our culture,
we wait for everyone to be around the table before to start eating, it's not a restaurant, help to prepare and set the table, don't just wait to be served!
For the laundry you can wash your own clothes by hand or, if you need there is a self laundry in the town.
We could need extra help with various tasks sometimes at home, so be flexible. We are not on a precise schedule... Especially when it comes with unstable weather!
"The Olive Grove" then is a special part of our farm where we need some extra help for the harvest - which is from early November until the second week of December - always alternated with regular maintenance at the gardens, planting, harvesting and weeding if needed.
!!!BE AWARE!!! It's a physical work most of the time, be ready, fit and motivated before deciding to join us! We need people with experience or fast learners!
Thanks for your interest!

You could also learn more about healthy nutrition and sustainable agriculture, learn Italian directly from an Italian teacher, learn more about meditational yoga (Nonna Giovanna is a Raja Yoga teacher and an ex-school teacher! Take advantage!)

We need help for different tasks, according to the season. Lots of weeding, and new planting, help in cooking , fixing drywalls, painting, pruning or harvesting...
An energetic and attentive person/couple who enjoy nature and manual tasks is the ideal, an easy-going and level-headed one!
We love good vibes!

We have a roulotte to share with another workawayer if you are travelling alone. If you are a couple it will be all yours. There is a compost toilette with shower and everything needed.
The main house is based in Lizzano (Taranto) near to the countryside (5 min driving or 10 biking) in case of any need.
We will provide you with a bike to give you the independence to sneak around and we can drive you around to the nearby towns when possible to discover new places!
Buses are pretty easy to take if you want to travel farther sometimes...Was noch ...
In your time off you can go to the beach, ride, hike, read,!travel around, we are really close to Lecce, Alberobello, Matera, Gallipoli, Porto Cesareo, Campomarino di Maruggio!
