    Every helper will see how the daily life will be organized in a small village, traditional farming etc.
    I can help to improve the German language.
    It's possible to learn something about the concept of protecting diversity in a kitchen garden.

    The garden has to be prepared for the spring. That includes some boring works, e.g. eliminating "wrong" plants.
    It's necessary to look for the tools, clearing up all the things we need for seeding.
    Additionally some normal "spring works" could be done, e.g. preparing the greenhouse or reparing the bicycles.

    What you need is patience and power.

    Louisendorf is very small village near Frankenberg/Eder in the north of Hessian, 45 km from Marburg/Lahn, 8km from the national park "Kellerwald Edersee"
    The next train stations and shops are 8 km from my home. In Louisendorf we`ve got a bus stop. The village is very quiet, a lot of woodland around, perfect to walk and to enjoy the nature.
