Description
Hi and welcome to @hejfrustugan. We are a creative nature loving couple with a baby, a dog, a cat, 9 summerhorses (2 of them newly born) and some tiny hens.
We have a small horse-farm with almost 10 hectar land, 1 hour outside Stockholm City in Sweden. We're into yoga, meditation, music, good food, and love swimming in lake 5 minutes from our home :) We have alot of goals with are farm and plan to create a small ecovillage with natural buildings such as clay/cob houses and hope to find people/families who would like to live here and create a sustainable healthy living with us. This summmer we are holding a course in "How to build an Mud house". A course in 2 parts starting of 24-27 august, second part starts 7-10 September. And we are looking for people who would like to come join the course and learn natural building.
Other then building natural buildings we wish to build an outhouse, an outdoor kitchen, a sauna and more! We would also love to build up a permaculture garden with both perennials and annuals. We´d like to get some help with the farming in general and we´d love some help with outdoor carpentry projects and to build a permaculture garden in a creative, natural environment in Gnesta, Sweden.
We are welcoming up to two people to live in the house with us, with your own entrance and bathroom.
There is also the possibility to sleep in tent on the land if that's preferred. We also have a Bell tent in the garden for rentals if you'd like to try that one night or more :)
We live less than an hour south of Stockholm, the vibrant capital of Sweden, yet there is a beautiful tranquillity here far from big roads and crowds. There is a bus close by that takes you to the train to Stockholm. We live in the middle of a beautiful landscape close to lakes and forest.
For digital nomads we have unlimited fast wifi!
Just reach out and ask if you have any questions :)

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are two creative women living farm life with our baby. Dajana is a musician and Molly is a creator, kinesiologist and health therapist. We love to be outdoors and Molly have a passion for herbal medicine and food as medicine. We are spiritual people interested in all kinds of healing and life affirming things.
Molly loves to learn new things and to share her knowledge.
Are you interested in working on your health and wellbeing, or just wish to have a good time, exploring the best of Sweden this could be the place for you.
The small cities Gnesta and Järna are close by that provide a cultural scene with music, parties, festivals, organic foods, biodynamic farming etc.
Help
Who are you?
You have carpentry skills and a great plus of you know your way in the garden and want to help us build a permaculture food garden.
Someone that feels the spark and pull to come here and co create with us. A doer with a love for nature.
We wish to mainly get help with building some new structures on the land, perhaps a clay house and a sauna. We have many dreams and need someone with the skills that we don't yet have.
It´s a plus if you have a drivers license.

Accommodation
There is a studio in the house with it´s own entrance and bathroom. The room has a queen size bed and a sink. The windows provide a lot of light and the room has a beautiful energy.
A small kitchen can easily be fixed in the studio as there is already a sink in there.
We both love good food and Molly is a good cook, making hearthy stews, fresh sallads and much more.
What else ...
The bus a few minutes from the house will take you to Gnesta in about 15 minutes, there you have the trains both SJ and SL that will take you to Stockholm in less than an hour.
