  • Description

    Description

    We are a sustainable project and are looking for people to help us with the vegetable garden, renaturation and building the fruit forest. On our property (5ha) there is a mud house, yurts and experimental buildings e.g. domes and other structures with integrated art objects and colours.
    We (Andrea and Patrice) have lived here since 2016 with two dogs and three cats.
    We are not a company, an association or a foundation and work exclusively for our own needs.
