Hi, I'm Sven and living here for over three years. I love nature, people and the land.
The project was started to escape the hustle of the normal world and to lead a pleasant, respectful life. I try to produce most of the food myself and use resources sparingly.
The drinking water is fetched from a nearby spring, electricity is produced by a solar system and a lot of the work is done by hand as well with tractor and other machines.
The farm is almost 2 hectares in size, there are various animals, cork forest, olive trees, wine and a large garden.
The aim of the project is to live as independently and sustainably as possible.
All skills and all loving beings are welcome.
