Beschreibung
UPDATE: we are looking for someone with photography skills around March.
We are a family of 4 trying to live off our land, a farm surrounded by woods, olive groves and vineyards. After a year as a host with Workaway we would like to host you too! Why not?!, and continue to regenerate the land to build a micro farm as close to nature as possible.
I will add as soon as we have planned the next projects of the year.
These include forest management, growing and preserving food, crafts, construction, cooking, taking care of livestock and possibly children, but also one morning a week cleaning the BnB. We happily host children, homeschoolers, animals (note, our animals are in total freedom).
We offer the possibility of staying in:
- an off-grid “glamping” tent of 24 m2, with 2 beds, a workspace, a stove, solar lights;
- an on-the-grid room (made in the first year with volunteers) with two to three beds;
- a simple tent if you prefer to have your own space.
All options are close to a bathroom with all the amenities, and a room to clean clothes.
Depending on how we organize ourselves, it could be a shared space with another volunteer. Finally, we will offer breakfast and dinner, with homemade products, bread, pizzas and delicious vegetables and eggs, products collected... You will eat like a King in our typical Italian cooking style! You will have access to the kitchen, various refreshment points, and we can agree on the food you can take from the land :) You will need to bring your own snacks (snacks, plant-based dairies, sugary drinks etc).
Where is the house?
In Montepulciano, Tuscany, reachable by train (Montepulciano station, Chiusi, Terontola), by bike, by car. You can walk to the city center through the fields and old streets, it is a 30 minute walk.
==========
Siamo una famiglia di 4 persone che cerca di vivere della propria terra, un podere circondata da un bosco, uliveti e vigneti. Dopo un anno host con Workaway vorremmo ospitare magari anche tu! perché no?!, e continuare a rigenerare i terreni per costruire una micro fattoria il più possibile vicina alla natura.
Aggiungerò non appena avremo pianificato i prossimi progetti dell'anno. Questi includono la gestione della foresta, la coltivazione e la conservazione del cibo, l'artigianato, la costruzione, la cucina, la cura del bestiame ed eventualmente dei bambini, ma anche una mattinata a settimana a pulire il BnB. Ospitiamo con piacere bimbi, homeschoolers, animali (attenzione, i nostri animali sono in libertà totale).
Offriamo la possibilità di alloggiare in :
- una tenda “glamping” off-grid di 24 m2, con 2 letti, uno spazio di lavoro, una stufa, luci solari;
- una camera on-the-grid (fattail primo anno con i volontari) con due a tre letti;
- una tenda semplice se preferite avere il vostro spazio.
Tutte le opzioni sono vicine ad un bagno con tutte le comodità, e una stanza per pulire panni.
A seconda di come ci organizziamo, potrebbe essere uno spazio condiviso con un altro volontario. Infine, offriremo colazione e cena, con prodotti fatti in casa, pane, pizze e deliziose verdure e uova, prodotti raccolti... Mangerai come un Re nel nostro tipico stile di cucina italiano! Avrete accesso alla cucina, ai vari punti di ristoro, e potremo concordare il cibo che potrete prendere dalla terra :) Dovrete portare i vostri snacks (merendine, plant-based dairies, bevande zuccherate etc).
Dove si trova la casa?
A Montepulciano, Toscana, raggiungibile in treno (Montepulciano stazione, Chiusi, Terontola), in bicicletta, in auto. Si arriva a piedi al centro della città attraverso i campi e le vecchie strade, è una passeggiata di 30 minuti.Arten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten

The project consist of helping us building our farm! From creating structures to caring for the animals and the garden, to preparing meals or babysit our girls. Typically you would help us in the morning and have the afternoon free. The meals includes homemade omnivore/vegetarian options, mainly italian, french and asian dishes. We do weekly our sourdough bread, pizza, pasta, pancakes, jams, soups etc. Tell us prior any specifity of your diet or allergy.
Our family is fluent in Italian, french and English, but we need a multicultural and multi language approach for our daughters! You will definitely learn and share a language by coming here! We would love to share experiences with a homeschool/free school family.
The main house has electricity and wifi and a cozy space if you want to relax or work on your computer. You will have access to the whole property, the forest, the lake. It is really peaceful, full of birds, and you can join us for a yoga practice, read a book in the trees, play music, do pottery or learn traditional italian cuisine! Finally, the historical medieval city of Montepulciano is 10 minutes away by bike, and we are also close to the Roman baths, medieval cities and magnificent landscapes of the Val D’Orcia.Projekte mit Kindern

Arbeit
The project is a self-sufficient family-size farm. In our dreams, it includes a lot of animals (silvopasture), a food forest/garden (integrated ecology, permaculture, mindful and traditional agriculture, all year round crops etc), foraging (wild flowers, essences and mushrooms) and a peaceful convivial space (restructuring the house for our family and the barn to host volunteers, meditation and yoga deck, fire pit, agricamping, lake to bathe etc, hosting families and schools, and why-not a homeschool structure).
Main activities with the volunteers :
- Cutting wood
- Clear paths and find the essences in the forest (axe, scythe, ecology)
- Care of the animals in the morning - Fencing and building sheds for the animals (April-May: structures for the geese and the goats)
- Designing, planting, caring for and harvesting the permaculture garden and food forest. Include bees. We produce most of our vegetables.
- Preserving food and products (olive oil, wine , soap, infused oils…)
- Forage wild herbs, flowers, mushrooms, nuts
- Pruning of the olive and fruit trees (April)
- Harvest of the olives (November). We are producing our olive oil, almost a year supply.
- Traditional Italian cooking
- Play with our daughters : KIDS AND FAMILIES WELCOMED!
- Building (April-May : solar panels, isolation of the house for the volunteers, create a wood patio, dig and build the greenhouse (a half-buried wood dome), structures for the animals)Sprachen

Besides work, we did several leisure activities with them, their families and the fellow workawayers.
We were able to get to know the area, attend cultural festivals in Montepulcuiano and experience authentic Tuscany.
I had a great time, thank you :)
