    Description

    A House, in the wood, near a hamlet.

    Now, there are living 2 adults (under 50) and 3 children (under 10), a dog, two cats and a few hens and rabbits. Surrounded by squirrels, foxes, wilds boars, roe-deers, rabbits, alligators, mouses, moles and a large variety of birds...

    We are an initiative (of a Spanish non-profit association) started 8 years ago... We decide to build this place to facilitate a friendly environment to practice, experiment and learn other paths to be and to do (traditional, permacultural, ecological, etc.)

    We are not a farm or any kind of business, we don’t profit your work or any work.

    We are inviting to share the day by day of our rural lifestyle plenty of research, handmade works, self-construction (natural and refurbished), agriculture, animals, harvest, breeding, painting, herbarium, canning, body consciousness, music, lectures, lively nutrition...

    We provide accommodation. We don't provide food/ meals.

    We share lodging, feeding and a space for reconnecting and experience with a more healthy, sustainable and sustainability lifestyle.

    In the house of the wood Spanish and English are spoken, gently.

    Una casa, en el bosque, junto a una aldea.
    Habitada, ahora, por 2 adultos (de menos de 44) y 3 niños (de menos de 10), más una perra, dos gatos y varias gallinas y conejos. En los alrededores hay ardillas, zorros, jabalís, corzos, conejos, lagartos, ratones, topos y gran variedad de aves...

    Somos una iniciativa (de una asociación española sin ánimo de lucro) que comenzó hace unos 8 años... Nos decidimos a construir este espacio con la intención de facilitar ámbitos donde se pueda aprehender otras formas de ser y hacer... (tradicional, permacultural, ecológico, etc.)

    No somos una granja o negocio, no lucramos con tu trabajo ni con ningún trabajo.

    Invitamos a compartir la cotidianidad rural de investigación, trabajos manuales, auto-construcción (natural y de reciclaje), agricultura, cuidado de animales, recolección, crianza, pintura, herboristería, conservas, consciencia corporal, música, lectura, alimentación viva …

    Proveemos un lugar donde puedes alojarte. No proveemos las comidas.

    Compartimos el alojamiento, la alimentación y un espacio para la reconexión y la puesta en práctica de saberes de una forma de vida que nos resulte más saludable, sustentable y sostenible.

    En la casa del bosque se hablan con ganas la lengua Castellana y la Inglesa.
