Born and raised in Canada, My wife and I decided to return to the land of my family and rejuvenate an inherited olive grove. Using organic and regenerative agricultural practices, we are passionate about raising healthy olives and animals, as well as sharing our passion.

The tradition of raising Olives on Island brač on the Dalmatian coast of Croatian is both ancient and culturally engrained in the local communities. We find it ultimately a peaceful and spiritual experience that we love to share with family, friends, tourists, and anyone else interested in living as close to the land as possible.
Winter season is a time where the island is sleepy and even a bit isolated. If you are looking for peace and quiet, this is where you will find it. If you are looking for a lot of people and bustling attractions, we think you may be disappointed as many establishments are only open in the summer season.
We finished with olive picking for our 2019 harvest!
*** For the rest of the winter we are only looking for someone who is has the skills and is able to restore our old wood shutters - can host this single person or someone with a travelling partner ***

30m squared small stone cottage with a loft sleeping arrangement. Slightly larger than a "tiny home". Heated by a woodburning stove (wood provided). There is a small kitchen and washroom.
We are looking for someone who can provide their own meals, with some shared meals if we work a full day in the field. For this arrangement, we are offering shorter work days, or more days off, or a longer stay than the work necessary.
We have children and a large breed dog (rhodesian ridgeback). While you have your own space and privacy, you should be comfortable and kind, but also confident and firm around them.
The island of Brač is home to one of the most beautiful beaches in Europe (Zlatni rat in Bol). There are hiking and biking trails, and unspoiled coastline and many historical sites and attractions. The island is well connected by ferry to the mainland attractions including Split. Our grove is located in a small and peaceful village. Although it is relatively close to the main port town (about a 40 minute walk) it is for those who prefer a peaceful setting. There are buses to the other side of the island, and taxi's are available. We have one (larger) bicycle for use. We can pick up and drop off when you arrive on the ferry.
