    Description

    We are a couple living on the edge of Budapest next to a field. We are establishing a little farm while learning how to heal our beautiful Mama Earth and working towards a self-sustaining life - deep mulching beds, compost projects, habitats for birds and bees, all organic permaculture and biodynamic methods + in progress: bees, yurt, compost toilet, water catchment. Our garden is filled with birds and crickets and we also share our neighbourhood with horses, sheep and lots of wild animals.
    We need help in and around the house, in the garden, with our grandson, and our farm plans.

    Extra bonus: if you stay at least 6 weeks, and you are interested in high-end hospitality, you are welcome to be part of a 5 star kitchen crew for 3 days in the beautiful countryside of Hungary.
