Descripción
Our smallholding is located between the mountains and the sea near the villages of Cliffoney, Kinlough and Mullaghmore, Co Sligo. We have a polytunnel and outdoor vegetable beds in which we grow our own food. We are a family of 2 adults, 2 teen children and another grown-up child who lives in Dublin. We have 1 friendly lab-cross dogs, 2 outdoor cats, hens and ducks. We are deeply inspired by Fukuoka's One Straw Revolution and the principles of agro-forestry. We enjoy surfing, sea swimming, snorkelling, going to the many local beaches, meditating, playing music, practicing yoga, meditation, watching movies and entertaining friends and family. We eat a mainly vegetarian diet and are committed to the principles of sustainability and permaculture. We have volunteered on organic farms as a family, and have enjoyed sharing our home and daily tasks with others over the past 8 years. Ideally we are looking to host people who are happy to help out independently and have skills and interests in the areas of permaculture and growing food organically. Accommodation is in a self contained caravan in our garden. Projects on the farm include helping to establish a forest garden, tending to vegetables, clearing drains, fencing, harvesting and storing food, cooking for the family, helping around the house and gardens. Our primary reason for hosting is to promote cultural exchange and learning opportunities. While we may not always be available to work together, as we both work full-time we will share meals and recreation time together and will be happy to show you the local sights. We look forward to continuing to share experiences and learn from future volunteers as everyone who has stayed with us in the past has taught us something unique and left their mark on our homestead in their own special way.
