    Description

    We are two friends Hanna (29) and Judy (30) who are living in the middle of a beautiful low mountain range in the south of Germany called UNESCO Geopark “Swabian Alb”.
    We just bought a hectare of land which we are starting to turn into a permaculture oasis. It is already a beautiful piece of land with a lot of fruit trees such as apples, plums and cherries.
    Both of us already did a lot of Workaway (permaculture) in the past years and now the time has come to be the other part and host people from around the world.
    Besides spending our time in the land/garden, Hanna is almost done with her Bachelor in “ nature conservation and landscape management” and I am working full time as a teacher.
    We are already experienced with permaculture but this summer we start our big project which is why we are looking for helping hands and good company during this summer.
    The place where we live is a small village surrounded by nature.
