Beschreibung
Sustainable and regenerative family farm.

We are a family of 4 : Ruben, Manon and our daughters Neve and Blue. To this day we are caring for 30 chickens, geese and guinea pigs and will quickly extend the family with other animals. We have goats arriving in May!

Our land consists of 4 hectares of woods, abandoned orchard and olive field (with a renewed biologic certification), a lake and two structures in a more or less habitable state, in Montepulciano, Tuscany.

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).

The work 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 work with 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.
