  Description

  We , Line and Flemming , lives on Bornholm. An island in the Baltic Sea 35 x 55 km .
  We came from the Copenhagen area in the early 70s, to a smallholding outside installations of any kind , and began farming and vegetable and dairy cow and working on the ground and got grain and vegetables and so on and so forth .
  We have since built ourselves out and about and for and installed electricity and water and much more.
  
  Now we have vegetable garden, herb plots , flower beds and many livestock and actually 10 WC's around.
  We rent out for summer families and different groups.
  All year we stay solid 7-9 people each with our vegetable garden.
  We are building all the time new to or about .
  The tasks are varied and changing with the seasons .
  
  
  
  Vi, Line og Flemming , bor på Bornholm. En ø i Østersøen på 35 x 55 km.
  Vi kom fra Københavns området i starten af 70èrne, til et lille husmandssted uden installationer af nogen art, og gik i gang med landbrug og køkkenhave og malkeko og arbejdede med jorden og fik korn og grønsager og så videre og så videre.
  Vi har siden selv bygget ud og om og til og installeret el og vand med meget mere.
  
  Nu har vi køkkenhave, urtebede, blomsterbede og mange husdyr og faktisk 10 wcèr rundt omkring.
  Vi lejer ud til sommerfamilier og forskellige grupper.
  Hele året bor vi fast 7 til 9 personer med hver vores køkkenhave.
  Vi bygger hele tiden nyt til eller om.
  Arbejdsopgaverne er mangeartede og skifter med årstiden.
