    Description

    We are a little private Hobbyfarm in Hohenlohe, 100km north of Stuttgart. Our “village” has just 16 houses and is close to a forest and beautiful hiking tracks. The Kocher-Valley is also very close. The farm ist 400 years old with old fruittrees, some vegetable growing and heaps of chickens, quails, geese and ducks. Aswell we have four horses, Cats and two small dogs. We are happy for any help with the daily work in the stables and gardens and if you like some small craft projects. There is a cozy caravan just next to the campfire place. We speak german and English and a little bit French. Our way of living is very ecological orientated. Our food is also as sustainable as possible and most dishes are vegetarian. We welcome open minded people on our farm who are willing to learn and live with our animals.

    Wir sind eine kleine private Hobbyfarm in Hohenlohe, 100km nördlich von Stuttgart. Unser Dorf hat nur 16 Häuser und liegt nahe einem Wald und tollen Wanderwegen. Das Kochertal ist schnell zu erreichen. Der Hof ist 400 Jahre alt mit alten Obstbäumen, Gemüseanbau und vielen Hühnern, Wachteln sowie 4 Enten und 2 Gänsen. Zudem haben wir vier Pferde, Katzen und zwei Hunde. Wir freuen uns über Unterstützung bei der täglichen Arbeit in den Ställen und Garten, sowie kleinen Bastelprojekten je nach Vorlieben. Es gibt einen kuscheligen Wohnwagen direkt beim Lagerfeuerplatz. Wir sprechen fließend Deutsch und Englisch und haben Französisch Grundkenntnisse. Unsere Lebensweise ist sehr ökologisch orientiert. Unsere Ernährung ist bewusst mit vielen vegetarischen Gerichten. Wir freuen uns auf offene Menschen, die gerne etwas lernen und mit unseren Tieren zusammen leben möchten.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We are in the middle of nowhere, so there is no public transports. For arriving I`ll pic you up on the next train station (Schwäbisch Hall-Hessental or Waldenburg) or FlixBus-Station (Wolpertshausen). In your time off you can go hiking, do some sports, relax etc... We can organise every now and then a trip to Schwäbisch Hall or somewhere else, but nor regulary... Our spot is more a place to calm down :)
