  • Description

    Description

    We are Barbara (70) and Rudolf (72), residing in a charming house with a spacious garden where we deeply value and preserve nature. Tending to 14 bee hives and cultivating our own vegetables are among our favorite activities.

    We also have another house on our property that we make available, on a non-profit basis, for seminars and workshops focused on spirituality and nature.

  • Help

    Help

    We would greatly appreciate assistance in our private garden and with tasks around our home, such as cooking and cleaning. If you're interested in learning about bees, we suggest visiting us between May and October. May is typically our busiest time with the bees. We do not harvest honey from our bees; we maintain them in a manner that respects their nature and for conservation purposes. All tasks you help us with are private, or on a non-profit basis.
