    Description

    We are a community house project with a vegetable garden and lots of ideas for enjoying life together, being creating, and on a larger scale also contributing to making the world a more beautiful place and human life on earth more respectful and co-creative with nature. We live on the edge of a small town one hour away from Berlin with a small forest and fields behind the house, but also close to everything else you need. The train station is only 5min by bike or 12 by foot away and then you can catch a train to Berlin or Leipzig. Our town has also a lot to offer: a cinema, a thermal bath, an Acro Yoga Jam once a week as well as a contact improvisation jam, many different communities and house projects in the surroundings, which make interesting events, such as singing events, political or creative stuff. There are also many possibilities to cycle or hike around the region.
    We are all in our late 20s/early 30s, working as tree caretakers and in the education field and in body therapy. And there is a really cute dog living with us.
    We are very interested in communal living and interpersonal dynamics, psychology in general, healthy food and delicious cooking, how we can advance the social-ecological transformation and support the development of new structures, and much more. We are very open people and are happy about meeting new people from around the world!

    Wir sind ein gemeinschaftliches Hausprojekt mit einem Gemüsegarten und vielen Ideen, um gemeinsam das Leben zu genießen, zu werkeln und zu schaffen und im größeren Stil auch dazu beizutragen, dass die Welt ein schönerer Ort und das menschliche Leben auf der Erde wieder mehr in Respekt und Kokreation mit der Natur ist.
    Wir leben am Rand einer Kleinstadt, den Wald hinterm Haus, aber auch den Blick nach vorne über die Häuser.
    Zu Fuß oder mit dem Rad zum Bahnhof und in einer Stunde in Berlin, aber genauso auch hinten aus unserem Garten raus in die Natur.
    Wir sind alle Ende 20/Anfang 30 und arbeiten teils angestellt, teils selbständig in der Baumpflege und in der Bildung. Daneben interessiert uns gemeinschaftliches Leben und zwischenmenschlichen Dynamiken, Psychologie im Allgemeinen, gesundes Essen und lecker Kochen, wie wir die sozial-ökologische Transformation voranbringen und beim Aufbau neuer Strukturen unterstützen können, und vieles mehr. Wir sind sehr offene Menschen und freuen uns über frischen Wind!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are all very experienced in community life and at the same time very interested in social developments. So, on the one hand, you can get exciting insights into community life and togetherness and, on the other hand, have exciting conversations about political events, change and transformation, personal development, gardening, tree care, educational work, horses, dogs, what we can learn from animals, etc. You are welcome to take part in our life and our activities, e.g. when we eat together, on short trips to the lake or when we go to events in the area (singing or dancing events, lectures, etc.).

    Wir sind alle sehr gemeinschaftserfahren und gleichzeitig sehr interessiert an gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen. Also kann man bei uns einerseits spannende Einblicke in gemeinschaftliches Leben und Miteinander bekommen und andererseits spannende Gespräche führen über das politische Geschehen, Wandel und Transformation, Persönlichkeitsentwicklung, Gärtnern, Baumpflege, Bildungsarbeit, Pferde, Hunde, was wir von Tieren lernen können usw.
    Du kannst gerne an unserem Leben und unseren Aktivitäten teilhaben, z.B. beim gemeinsamen Essen, bei kleinen Ausflügen zum See oder auch, wenn wir zu Events in der Umgebung gehen (Sing- oder Tanzveranstaltungen, Vorträge etc.)

  • Help

    Help

    The tasks you would do are mainly helping in the vegetable garden, but also chopping wood/heating and doing smaller tasks around the house (small diy, repairing), and sometimes cooking or cleaning. Sometimes you will help us and then spend time with us, where we can exchange ideas, learn from each other, etc., and sometimes there are tasks to do on your own. Basically, we try to ensure that the tasks and the way of helping suits the individual person, so don't be afraid to show who you are, what you are curious about, what you are good at and what you don't like doing.

    Arbeit, die bei uns anfällt, ist hauptsächlich im Gemüsegarten zu helfen, aber auch mal beim Holz machen/heizen und kleineren Arbeiten am Haus (Renovieren, Reparieren), ggf. auch mal kochen oder putzen.
    Teilweise wirst du uns helfen und dann Zeit mit uns verbringen, wo wir uns austauschen, voneinander lernen usw. können und teilweise gibt es Aufgaben zum alleine daran arbeiten.
    Grundsätzlich bemühen wir uns, dass die Arbeiten und die Arbeitsweise stimmig zum jeweiligen Mensch passt, also trau dich ruhig zu zeigen, wer du bist, worauf du neugierig bist, was dir liegt und was du nicht gerne tust.
