    Description

    There is so much to say...

    I got a 1.4 hectare field in October 2021. since then I started improving the soil with the eden gardening method and woodchips. The vegetables turned out quite well for the first year of soil treatment and there is Stil a lot to eat in the ground for the wintertime 21/22. Now the second Garden year ins over and we get ready for the third. So we need helping hands in the permaculture garden. This year we want to have more vegetables than ever before?

    In the Summer 2022 I shifted my energy towards a big hole an excavator dug. An Earthhouse arised within 8 weeks and is now the warm community space for the winter.

    Another safe space where workawayers can stay is the log cabin, I build in 2020. It’s located in the village in the backyard of the farm and approximately 222m from the earthhouse.

    The 3rd possible accommodation is the yurt we Build in 2022 as well.
    Other natural buildings like another yurt 🛖, an Tiny House and a Earthship are planned and can be build even in winter month’s 22/23, when the community of willing people grows.

    In January even more field is transformed into garden space to start the planting initiative within the hole year 2023.

    To have a good outreach and for our self-supply we are regularely beaking traditional bread in an clay oven, building kids playgrounds from wood (I have enormous amounts of wood), build things with the log cabin building method, make workshops, grow as Pearson, garden, help people with our potential, cook with our own vegetables for a lot of people, do some workshops with kids, improve our autarchy and spread joy.
    And do all the things you inspire us to. 😊

    Enjoy your life.

    Maybe see you soon.

    P.S.
    My dad takes care about the animals, so he is the person to talk to if you want to learn something or work with animals.
    I am the generalist in the family and know something of everything, but I never stop learning.
