Read all before ask any question. Read all before ask to come to join.
Hy everybody, I am max ,1996 , and I live in Tuscany ( ITALY) in a very untouched green valley ( in fact it's called Val Verde) from september 2020.
I am creating an organic ecovillage project, designed through PERMACULTURE .
The project it's in the middle of the nature , surrounded by forest, rivers and tranquility.
What I can offer is to teach about permaculture , regenerative agricolture, beekeeping , chicken , geese breeding and much more.
Services:

what I ask to the workawayers:
- Name and surname and copy of 1 I.D. (Identification document- just for self guardianship)
- help in daily activities
-no hypocondriacs
