Beschreibung
Hi Workawayers!
we are looking for lovely people during the summer to support us with gardening and daily life tasks.
In the heart of the beautiful black forest in the southwest of Germany, there is a large house full of joy, life and energy. The house is located in Bürchau, a relatively isolated village of about 200 inhabitants. The first shops are about fifteen minutes away by car. At the moment we are a group of 7 adults and three children living together in a former mountain hotel with 900m² of living space and a garden of 2000m². We moved in April 2022, bought the house in September 2022 and are now immersed in many exciting and creative projects!
-> development of a regenerative vegetable garden
-> development of living spaces inside and outside the house
-> organization of cultural events and parties
-> harmonization and deepening of community life
We want to see our community grow, our projects develop and our fundamental values spread as much as possible. Solidarity, ecology and diversity are not just theoretical concepts for us, but tend to be implemented on a daily basis to reach our ultimate goal: a good life for everyone.
This summer we have some the following tasks:
- maintenance of the house and garden
- supporting to build the house for the chickens
- taking care of our (vegetable) garden
- preserving fruits, vegetables and herbs
- baking bread
- and many daily tasks like cooking, cleaning, childcare etc.
Come and visit us to contribute to the blooming of our project and have a great time in our community! -

- Decision-making according to the principles of sociocracy
- Instruments for harmonizing community life and conflict management

Arbeit
We need your help to develop the projects listed above! There are two possible ways to do this, which can ideally be combined:
- on the one hand you can support us directly with your skills, abilities and areas of expertise
- on the other hand you can support us indirectly by taking care of the daily chores and tasks that living in a community in a big house implies: cooking, cleaning, taking care of the garden or the children.
- you will only support our community life and not be involved in the seminarhouse.
We are at the beginning of the development phase of our activities, which means that we need flexibility and room for new ideas. Your imagination and creative spirit are welcome! We are open to all kinds of support, but we are particularly looking forward to receiving expertise in the following areas:
maintenance and repair of all kinds, interior and exterior design, ecological resource management, gardening, architecture, electricity, photography and media creation, construction skills, DIY... -

Our old hotel has many rooms for our guests. Our rooms have one, two or three beds, each with a private bathroom. Sheets, blankets and towels are available. You can use all the facilities of our common areas.
Food:
You have free access to our community kitchen and its stock of food. We usually have dinner as a group every night/noon. We cook basically vegetarian and vegan, although we do tolerate the occasional consumption of meat. -
Was noch ...
Our house is sometimes full of life and with guests of all kinds, in other times people need space for themselves and its quiet, everyone is in his/her room. It's up to you to find your balance.
Here are a few relevant facts about our location:
- we are almost in the middle of the Southern Black Forest Nature Park
- we are about 50 km from three "big" cities: Freiburg in Breisgau (Germany), Basel (Switzerland) and Mulhouse (France)
- the nearest "small" town with shops is Schönau, a 15 minute drive away.
- two bus lines pass through our village, but the bus is not running often.
- notable tourist attractions: numerous hiking trails, ski area nearby, lake for swimming -
