Description
We are a family living on a farm, learning how to grow our own food and make a living from it. Besides, we produce and process some foods and beverages, such as dried bananas, kombucha, beer, etc. We are also gradually restoring the house that is over 100 years old, made with natural construction techniques.
We are inspired by Permaculture, Agroecology, Organic and Biodynamic Practices and Alternative Gastronomy.
If you want to work while having contact with nature and having as much fun as possible then this is the place for you. We are looking for people who like to enjoy life, are dependable and hard working.
