Description
We are restoring an old village house and creating a permaculture garden. We have a young forest garden (4 years old) as well as olive and fruit trees. We have an old outdoor wood oven we want to repair and have building work to do such as pointing the stone wall and laying bricks on the other gable wall. I have two children that are with me one week in every two. We welcome families. We love and play music and have various instruments. There are other interesting permaculture projects in the region. We have good wifi connection.
