Description
I am Nathalie, I have been living in a small village near Vendée for 2 years with my cat Lounie. I have been a Qigong teacher until now but I recently decided to focus on the production and processing of medicinal and aromatic plants.
november 2024: I am now in horticultural training until the end of 2025, very busy with the weeks at the training center and the internships, my production is therefore postponed but I can welcome from spring for a few days to help in the garden and vegetable garden and share some knowledge!
I don't speak English as well as google translate but I'll do my best!
My current goal is to create a first aromatic and medicinal garden, and a vegetable garden ,it's a personal project for the moment, there is no pressure, it will be done little by little
I am also looking for someone who has carpentry skills to redo a gate together with recycled wood
I am also a musician (percussion, diatonic accordion...), don't hesitate to bring your instruments (I have some to lend too)
I can only accommodate one person at a time
I live half an hour (and one hour for the beautiful coasts) from the sea, the Vendée is a very pretty region, rivers, bocage and beautiful coasts.
Je suis Nathalie, je vis dans un petit village proche de la vendée depuis un an avec ma chatte Lounie. Je suis professeur de Qi gong jusque là mais je décide récemment de m'orienter vers la production et la transformation de plantes médicinales et aromatiques. J'ai mes connaissances, que je peux partager mais cela n'empechera pas que j'aille me former, et je l'espere en 2024!
Mon objectif actuel est de créer un premier jardin aromatique et médicinal et potager
je recherche également une personne qui a des compétences de menuiserie pour refaire un portail ensembles avec du bois recyclé
Je suis aussi musicienne (percussions, accordéon diatonique...) , n'hésitez pas à amener vos instruments (j'en ai à prêter également)
Je ne peux accueillir qu'une seule personne à la fois
J'habite à une demi heure (et une heure pour les belles côtes) de la mer, la Vendée est une très jolie région, rivières, bocage et belles cotesTypes of help and learning opportunities
