Description
We live on an ecological micro farm. The farm covers one hectare and is semi wooded. We have a small vegetable garden and also a food forest! We are trying to respect soil and all the living creatures in our environment. We do regenerative and permaculture gardening.
Living in close connection with nature, we are working towards a sustainable way of life that is beneficial both for nature and for humanity. We mostly need help for gardening and also , domestic tasks, painting walls or if you are an artist to make some fresque in the walls as well. .
We are 4 km to the beach with surf activities.
Beste is a natural dye & ecoprint teacher and artist, and her studio is located in the farm but we are not asking to work in the studio !
