Description
Hi!
My name is Petar, I'm an easy-going and innovative guy in my twenties decided to do practical living after studying agroecology and to turn my grandpas ex vinyard into a food forest and make a place where people can connect more deeply to nature. The place is located in Subotica Podravska at a hillside covered with forest, few minutes walk to a spring and with beautiful views reaching Hungary.
I have dreamed for years to live in a rural environment and now it is happening.
I am a lot into healing techniques and work a lot with medicinal plants and mushrooms.
Know that most of the jobs are physical and outdoor. Anyone with certain skills is always valued but learning on the go works too..
If you have artistic skills or ideas for workshops to be held you can propose and we will see about it.
I have had a fair share of volunteers run through my place and I've decided to do a sharper introduction talk with potential volunteers via online call and a test-week once you arrive.
This is not a freestay or a tourist come and go but a place where real human values are lived and nourished in all of us, therefore come ready to give but also recieve!
Please send your whatsapp number when sending a message so we can communicate there easier, thank you..

Help
There are two locations I will be on this year. Mostly in gardens in a village by the river called Legrad where we are focused on sustaining a CSA(community supported agriculture) project.
Basic things like watering, weeding, planting and harvesting.
Second is the hillhouse above explained (Subotica Podravska) where there is some ecobuilding and artistic work to do.
Some 25minutes distance by car.

Accommodation
On the hillside house you will be in a relatively small and minimalistic house. There's a room with a few beds where you might share the room with other workawayers. Ìt is a cozy room and house in which you will sleep like a bear and wake up with the sound of many birds singing a morning energetic tune just for you 😄
On the farm location the accomodation will probably be an outdoor tent or wooden house and we will have an outdoor kitchen as a communal area.
We eat a mostly vegetarian diet and wish to supply as much of the food as I can from the garden, we can be flexible around meal preparation..
What else ...
Usually we have to pick you up in the nearest city Koprivnica and take you to site.
Farm location does have a shop and more urban neccesities nearby while the hillhouse is kind of isolated.

Petar is really smart and has an amazing knowledge about plants and nature in generel also he literally can play every instrument.
If you lost your connection to nature and want to regain it then he is the right choice.
I cant describe it but in almost two weeks I realized so much about my own disconnection and my idea of… read more
