    Descripción

    Kalimera, we are an Austrian couple living in Lakonia, in a small village located in between Molaio and Neapoli. The seaside is just 1 ½ km walking distance (downhill) away.

    For several years we are taking care about a long time neglected 1,5 ha huge olive grove.
    And we are daily working a couple of hours to clear undergrowth, lop and pruning the old trees.
    We also repair the stone walled terrace slopes; and build some stone walls.
    We use hand-tools as well as motor tools, so you should be handcrafted skilful and dare to cut bushes. You should be willing to trimming and pruning the largest trees, and stack firewood for next winter.
    We are not certified organic but try to be ecologically sounded – we have solar power and don’t use insecticides, and do use organic fertilizer.
    We especially are looking for helpers for collecting olives from October to November.
    During this time we usually do 3 to 4 consecutive days throughout the day to bring olives quickly to the mill. After 2 to 3 relaxing days we restart the collecting.

    Our field is just 1km outside the village of Daimonia where we have a small house, and an apartment in an adjacent courtyard. Our house always need some maintenance as cleaning, sanding and coating the wooden windows and door, plastering and jointing the outer facades, sealing and painting.

    In return for up to 25 hours help each week we provide accommodation, food and will show you around the area.
    You should like cats, but please don’t bring any pets with you.

    In the evening we like cooking for dinner together with our helpers in order to have a cultural exchange. Food includes fish, meat, varieties of vegetables from our garden and from the market, and a wide range of Austrian, Arabian and Greek dishes.

    We speak German, English, French, and some Greek and some Arabic.
