Description
Offer on our little farm happiness ❤️🍀🍄
Where: Wendland, 29456 Hitzacker
Dear friends, we are a family of 6 with many animal roommates, including currently 3 horses, a few sheep, two small pigs, chickens, our young dog Elmo, Fiete, our cuddly cat and thousands of bees in colonies.
We live on a little farm with a little forrest and fields in Hitzacker, near the river Elbe.
Due to our decision to stay in Germany, we sold our farm and are moving to another farm to be closer to the children's dream school.
This farm is about 3 hectares in size and also has a small beautiful forest and a few meadows nearby.
Fences have to be built there, stables have to be repaired and built. Beds should be replanted and the grove reforested. Of course, wood is also made and existing resources are used.
The house will be completely ecologically renovated this and next year; we are working with wood and clay. The paint should be removed from old doors and the wood should be oiled.
Since I am mostly alone on the farm with children and animals, I am also happy to receive support with everyday tasks, such as cooking or looking after the animals.
Next year we will be growing and planting all kinds of vegetables and fruit ourselves again, but we currently have an organic food coop with us for basic supplies.
I would like to make a few tiles and would also like to do it together with you. Of course you also have the option of making a nice cup or something else.
The new pottery and beekeeper's workshop will also be built, and there will of course be time to go on a leisurely or challenging ride or to explore the beautiful community of Elbtalaue.
Bicycles are of course available to you.
All of our animals enjoy affection and love. And we would love your help and ideas and of course great conversations!
Angebot auf unserem kleinen Bauernhofglück ❤️🍀🍄
Wo: Wendland, 29456 Hitzacker
Ihr Lieben, wir sind eine 6-köpfige Familie ( 2 Erwachsene und 4 Kinder zwischen 2 und 11) mit vielen tierischen Mitbewohnern, darunter derzeit 3 Pferde, einige Schafe, zwei kleine Schweine, Hühner, unsere junger Hund Elmo, Fiete, unser kuscheliger Kater und tausende Bienen in Völkern.
Wir leben seit dem Winter auf einem kleinen Hof bei Hitzacker an der Elbe.
In diesem Jahr stehen viele Veränderungen an, durch unsere Entscheidung in Deutschland zu bleiben, haben wir unseren Hof verkauft und zogen auf diesen Hof um näher an unserer Wunschschule der Kinder zu sein.
Dieser Hof ist etwa 3 ha groß und hat auch einen kleinen schönen Wald und ein paar Wiesen in der Nähe.
Dort müssen Zäune gezogen, Ställe repariert und errichtet werden. Beete sollen wieder angelegt und das Wäldchen aufgeforstet werden. Natürlich auch Holz gemacht und vorhandene Ressourcen genutzt werden.
Das Haus wird in diesem und nächstem Jahr komplett ökologisch saniert, wir arbeiten mit Holz und Lehm. Alte Türen sollen wieder von dem Lack befreit werden und das Holz geölt werden.
Eine neue Heizung eingebaut, die Elektrik neu installiert und alles ökologisch gedämmt und saniert werden.
Da ich überwiegend mit Kindern und Tieren alleine auf dem Hof bin, freue ich mich außerdem über Unterstützung bei alltäglichen Arbeiten, wie zum Beispiel Kochen oder der Versorgung der Tiere.
Im Frühsommer erwarten wir Lämmer, die Lammzeit ist auch immer aufregend und schön.
Wir werden im kommenden Jahr wieder allerlei Gemüse und Obst selbst anbauen und pflanzen, haben allerdings für die Grundversorgung momentan eine Bio- Foodcoop bei uns.
Ich möchte gerne schon ein paar Fliesen töpfern und auch gerne mit dir/euch gemeinsam. Ihr habt natürlich auch die Möglichkeit eine schöne Tasse oder etwas anderes zu machen.
Weitere Projekte sind der Bau einer Sauna und eines Lehmofens draußen.
Die neue Töpfer- und Imkerwerkstatt wird ebenfalls entstehen, Zeit um einen gemütlichen oder auch anspruchsvollen Ausritt zu machen oder die schöne Gemeinde Elbtalaue zu erkunden ist natürlich gegeben.
Fahrräder stehen dir natürlich zur Verfügung.
All unsere Tiere freuen sich über Zuneigung und Liebe. Und wir uns über eure Mithilfe und Ideen und natürlich tolle Gespräche!
