We, Herman and Randi, live in the southwest of Poland. Exactly 15 years ago we changed course in search of adventure and we emigrated from the Netherlands to Poland. We have bought an old farm and in three years converted it into a successful agrotourism farm with a small nature campsite. We sold this three years ago to fully focus on our real dream.
This is a unique non-profit holiday residence especially for children with a serious and / or chronic illness. It offers the children a pleasant, relaxing and carefree holiday. Far away from the the hospital, the pain and the sorrow. The house is in a beautiful, unique place in the middle of nature. Our village has 4 houses on a river. it is a paradise where the children can come back to themselves and catch their breath.
We aim to open the doors on 2023. But something still needs to be done (after three years of renovations). We cannot do this alone, so we are looking for you. Will you help to reach the target? Can you plaster, tile, carpentry, bricklaying, paint, do you have green hands or would you like to cook for the construction team or can you help us in a different way?
Attention to people and the environment is our top priority. That is why we opt for sustainable and ecological materials as much as possible when renovating. The house is heated by two heat pumps in collaboration with solar panels. It is our concern for the well-being of the children and for a safe future in a clean environment for "our" children.
Would you like to mean something for these children? Then we look forward to a message!
With best regards,
Herman and Randi and our sweet Golden Retriever Max.
