Description

We work with the land and live according to the seasons, this is also the way we like to connect with the places we travel to. We live in a rural community near the Swedish mountains and are used to collecting our own fire wood, growing our own food and doing foraging.

Together we have co-founded a group that works together with and supports the Indigenous people in Sweden in strenghtening their land rights. Jakob also runs a Community Supported Agriculture project whilst Lan works both professionally and voluntarily with nature conservation. We like to be of service for our communities.

We have previously volunteered on 10+ different farms between us (wwoof and workaway) and really enjoy getting the chance to connect with the people and the land.
