  Description

  I have been running this permaculture farm for six years. Currently, I do not have any animals on it. It is three and a half hectares of rough terrain. There is an orchard and a vegetable garden here. I am a certified permaculture designer and I would be happy to introduce you to some gardening and designing techniques. I am involved in herbalism and produce simple cosmetics. My farm is currently undergoing significant changes, so I could use some help with both gardening, DIY and construction (water distribution system, greenhouse, cellar,...). I live near a small town with excellent access to Warsaw, Gdańsk, Masuria, and Modlin Airport.
  
  Prowadzę od sześciu lat gospodarstwo permakulturowe. Obecnie nie mam w nim zwierząt. To trzy i pół hektara wertepów. Jest tu sad i warzywnik. Jestem certyfikowanym projektantem permakulturowym i chętnie pokażę ci to. Zajmuję się zielarstwem, produkuję proste kosmetyki. Obecnie moje gospodarstwo przechodzi spore zmiany- przydadzą się ręce do pracy zarówno w ogrodzie jak przy majsterkowaniu

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I have traveled with Workaway myself and greatly value cultural exchange. Each guest and host contributes something. I am a language teacher, designer, and permaculture educator. I make preserves, vinegars, and cosmetics, and I practice shamanism.

  Help

  Most of the food comes from my farm, so I need to devote a lot of attention to the garden. If I find a resourceful and physically fit person/people, I will gladly invite them to help me build one of the necessary structures. I need help with daily tasks such as sowing, weeding, watering, mulching, and taking care of poultry. I am happy to share my knowledge and experience. If you want to learn something specific from me, just ask.
  
  Zależnie od sezonu, zapraszam do wspólnej pracy i nauki w sadzie i ogrodzie takiej jak przygotowanie rozsad, ściółkowanie, zbiór i utrwalanie plonów. Gdy będzie dość sprawnych rąk do pracy, zbudujemy razem którąś z konstrukcji drewnianych lub ziemnych, które czekają na realizację.

  Accommodation

  I provide accommodation in rooms in the wooden house where I live, with access to a bathroom with a bathtub, and there is also an outdoor toilet. I provide three meals a day—I eat vegetarian (I eat eggs when they come from my farm). We share the preparation of meals and cleaning of the house. During the warm season, it is also possible to stay in the shed if there are many guests. Sometimes I host small weekend events. I can also find place for a camper van. I have a wifi that can serve 1 or 2 people more.

  What else ...

  I'm located right next to the town of Mława, which is easily accessible by train. It is only 1.15 hours to Warsaw, with trains running frequently from morning to evening. After 9 p.m., access is more difficult, but still possible.
  I enjoy interesting conversations, laughing and working together, but I also need moments of quiet. During the work week, I have a few hours of online work, and sometimes I go out for half a day. If you like music or watching movies, bring your headphones—I need a multimedia-free space for myself.
