    Description

    Hello everybody!

    We are a family and live on a farm in the Vosges (France). Our farm is a bit away from a village (Docelles). We strive to live together in harmony with humans, animals and plants.

    We operate two large greenhouses and a large outdoor garden. Our goal is to consume as much as possible from the garden for our own use.
    At the same time we live together with wonderful animals. Muku and Mira, our dairy cows, contribute a lot to our diet. The farm also has three goats and a chicken folk.
    Also we are open to offer workshops, seminars and larger festivities.



    Hallo zusammen!

    Wir sind eine Familie und wohnen auf einem Hof in den Vogesen (Frankreich). Unser Hof ist etwas abseits von einem Dorf (Docelles). Wir streben ein Zusammenleben in Harmonie mit Mensch, Tier und Pflanzen an.

    Wir betreiben zwei grosse Gewächshäuser und einen grossen Aussengarten. Dabei ist unser Ziel, soviel wie möglich aus dem Garten für den Eigenbedarf zu konsumieren.
    Zugleich leben wir mit wunderbaren Tieren zusammen. Muku und Mira, unsere Milchkühe, tragen einen grossen Teil zu unserer Ernährung bei. Zum Hof gehören auch noch drei Ziegen und ein Hühnervolk.
    Wir sind außerdem interessiert Workshops, Seminare und grössere Festanlässe anzubieten.
