We are a hard working French / Turkish couple running a farm next to Dalyan, in the Aegean side of Turkey since 2012.
We produce lemons and peaches in our garden. Also, we have cows and sheep’s, chickens and gooses, dogs and cats and one horse. We try to be as much independent as we can and we produce our own cheese, yoghurt, butter and grow vegetables in the kitchen garden.
We love our animals..

Animal Care
We are a small farm so the people coming may enjoy to spend time with the animals and in a quiet environment. They can have time to discover the region during the day when it is too hot to work in the summer.
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
The main tasks we have are:
- feeding (cows/sheeps) : there are 4 cows and about 40 sheeps.
- lots of cleaning-manure scraping
- milking
- garden related work. The limon tree and peaches' field is about 10,000 square meters.
- help finishing the renovation of the old farm house
projects : make a stone wall with the stones of an other broken wall.
5 hours a day Max, regarding the weather conditions
