Description
Hi, I'm Sven-Lena, Pleiadian and 54 years old. Living on my farm since over 5 years which is build from scratch. I love nature, people, universe and the land.
The project - Aguia de Pedra - was started to escape the hustle of the so called "normal" world to have a pleasant, respectful, real life. With fun and joy. I try to produce most of the food myself, using resources as given with a small footprint in balance with quality of life.
The drinking water is fetched from a nearby spring, electricity is produced by a solar and a lot of the work is done by hand as well with tractor and other tools.
The farm is almost 3 hectares in size, with chicken, cork forest, olive trees, wine and a large garden.
The aim of the project is to live as independently and sustainably as possible in respect of love and nature.
Mainprojects currently:
-> Reforestation - clearing, plantig, pruning, shaping
-> Gardening - building a permaculture beet from scratch
-> Planting of veges, maintaning the general garden, gardening
-> Track/road maintainance
upcoming: building
All skills and all loving beings are welcome.
