Description
Hey,
we, Katharina&Cristian and Angelika& Sven& Lenny (two couples) live in a "community" in a small village close to the black forest. In our house, there live also a cute dog, a cat and some worms of our wormfarm :-).
In the last years we have managed to grow our own vegetables and fruits, which we also sell sometimes on the market. The profit of the market is to maintain our garden and bees.
A lot has changed in recent months.... Our shared apartment was spread over two floors in the summer 2023.
Little Lenny was born view month ago.
And in a few more months, our community will get a small member more.
We are now preparing the garden for the spring and would be very happy if you would like to support us.
Due to the wonderful events in our lives, we can use every helping hand well.
We value to live in harmony with nature, that includes e.g. not to use a lot of chemicals. Trying to plant all plants in accordance with nature, to spread our knowledge about medical plants to people and to be balanced, describes our lifestyle best.
For our balance, we practice and get inspired in spiritual stuff, like doing Thaichi, rituals and meditations.

Accommodation
Your room is in a separate room.
Right now we are in the process of remodelling our rooms. At the moment, we can't say exactly where exactly you can sleep. In any case, we will find a place where you can relax and feel comfortable✨
You're welcome to life with our community...
We eat mostly vegetarian and ecological food 2 times a day. We are also open to vegan food.😉
What else ...
We are living very close to the Black Forest. There you/ we can go hiking, "catching" waterfalls and exploring the beautiful forest with its wildness.
Big cities are actually easy to reach ( Freiburg, Offenburg, Karlsruhe, Achern); but first you have to take a train in the next town (Renchen). You can reach Renchen easily by bike. It just takes you 20 min /3 km. If you'd like, we can lend you a simple bike.
