Description

Hello,

We are a family of four and are looking for new experiences and the opportunity to learn different agricultural techniques. We left our old life behind and moved into our trusted camper, "Wilma." Our kids, Merle (10) and Mattis (6), are eager to experience life on a farm and are excited to help in any way they can.

Enrico (37) and I (Maike, 36) are fluent in both German and English, and I’d love to brush up on my high school Italian skills. :)

We’re keen to learn about farming, self-sufficiency, and energy autonomy. We would also love to deepen our knowledge of farming animals and, if possible, cheese making or honey production. Additionally, we’re interested in getting to know the basics of construction and working with natural materials.

All four of us are excited to meet new people and be part of a friendly and welcoming community.

Our daughter Merle has celiac disease, which means she cannot have any gluten in her diet. We are experienced in managing her condition. :)
