  Beschreibung

  After the move from a Permaculture Foodforest in Northern Europe we are ready to start building a new Food forest according to Permaculture and Electroculture principles. The garden is 4.300 m2.
  
  All buildings as well as the garden will be equipped with Electroculture. We also recycle.
  
  We prefer a minimum stay of 2 weeks or longer, but a shorter period can be discussed.
  In case of a 3 months + long stay with lots of practice and educative talks, watching Permaculture tropical podcasts together, studying our Permaculture library, we will be able to give you the PDC-diploma (Permaculture Design Course certificate).
  
  If helpers stay on the small farm on days off, and eat here as well, we assume that they will be helping to clean the kitchen after the meal. Or if you want ,you can be reponsible for making the meals. Normally we cook on turn, or all of us together.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  The 'family' exists of me, Annette, psychologist and 67 is what the calendar is saying, but young of spirit, the rest of the family consist of Mau Mau a domesticated wild cat and little Ukky the 2 month old Labrador. There will be possibilities to meet my extended Mennonite family/friends, as well as we can visit a cow ranch in Neuland or east of Loma Plata, or a permaculture farm cow ranche north of Filadelfia. We can also visit other Permaculture gardens.
  
  This is the third country I live in after being born in the Netherlands and more then 25 yr in Norway, all in northern Europe. Before settling down here I traveled the world of warm countries, from Laos to Jamaica, from Nepal and Tibet to Thailand and Ecuador. I even wrote a travel blog those days.
  
  Here we speak English, Dutch, German, Norwegian, Swedisch, Danish, and less fluent French or Spanish.
  
  There is a guitar you can borrow, or you can play the electronic piano. There is a Greek Cretan lyra in the cupboard and soon more instruments will again be collected and played on. Maybe a Paraguay harp?

  Arbeit

  In the beginning we will work together, learning while doing. Later we still keep you company, but when older legs become tired, by sitting on a chair.
  
  Dont think this is all new, but in fact this knowledge have been used before and later became forgotten.
  In the food forest we will every time build soil for 10 m2 and so plant a 10 m2 guild, you can see this as a mini food forest. There is a lot to do, everything from seeding, watering, soil building, mulching, chop and drop, maintenance of existing trees and bushes.
  Feeding the ducks, cat and dog and soon the chickens. Closing the leaks in the duck pond, and if you like to work with wood, building a small duck house so that it becomes easier to find the duck eggs.
