    Description

    Hello, we are a family living in the black forest on a small farm with animals (goats, sheep, 2 horses) and we need some help in keeping the place clean and comfortable for animals and human beings. There are always a few things to repair and retain, to cook, to prepare, or helping to make firewood from the forest. We also grow our own vegetables and need help with planting etc. If you are interested in farmwork, animals, children, sustainable life, simple living and willing to be part of a community you might enjoy a visit. We welcome artists and open minded people to help us in various projects.
