Description
We, Elke and Martin, live in a small village in Bavaria 45 kilometres north of Munich. Both of us are artists and live in a house with a large garden. We are looking for help with gardening and creative projects for our small farm. We also offer an exciting insight into our workshops. The two of us are looking for open-minded people who are interested in crafts and gardening. Cultural and linguistic exchange would be very nice for us. Depending on what skills you bring with you, there is always something to do in the garden or around the house and we are happy to have helping hands.
