Descripción
Martha and i(Dimitris) started a 2 acres regenerative farm with main focus on vegetables. All of our production goes from farm to table to our CSA members and 2 grocery shops.We are converting the farm to no-till/no-dig which means we bring in a lot of organic matter.
We do permanent beds with lots of brought in compost and a lot of our own produced compost from food scrap from the kitchen and the gardens
The farm is in the middle of a small forest surrounded by the forest and a beautiful river that flows all year round.
We are looking for 1 or 2 persons who are into vegetable farming so they can help us maintain the market garden we are running and learn with us as much as possible about vegetables and the system we are using
We run a CSA market garden and in the years to come we want to approach at least 100 families. The system we are using is a no-dig approach so we do the less intervention we can. We mostly can host campers or car travelers as there are no buildings yet.
We can bring in people that have carpentry skills so we can do some infrastructures for the future travelers

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
We can provide them all the info about how our Greek ancestors lived in the area, our language and some historical stories about Greek culture.But mostly travelers can learn all about old building technics and about the way of living in a natural farm with permaculture principles.WE hope to learn anything that they could teach us about the way of living they have in their culture, maybe new languages
Ayuda
This year we are converting our garden to a no-dig approach so most of the work is maintaining the garden. We really are in need for gardeners or farmers to exchange ideas and farming cultures but we are willing to train people as well so everyone is suitable as long as they are willing to work outdoors and with their hands learning about plants and market gardening. We also need some people willing to learn and work with fruit trees, eco-protecting them and observing and recording things.

Alojamiento
The accommodation is in tents or campervans anywhere in the farm that gives privacy because the farm is approximately 1 hectare. WE have some tents here but travelers are free to carry their own if they want to. Travelers should carry their own sleeping bags even though we have 2-3 here. We do not use any chemicals at the farm and because the water we use falls into a pond we would appreciate if carrying their own organic soap and toothpaste.
Algo más...
There are beautiful sandy beaches very close to the farm and every 15 minutes there is an urban bus line that goes to the main city(Katerini) that is 10 km from the farm

We helped with building their house and worked in the garden and that was really inspiring!

Dimitri is a good guy who cares about his volunteers and doesn't ask anybody to do something he wouldn't do himself. I watched him work literally single-handed for my entire stay, with one hand in bandages after he cut his finger (hope you're healing quick,… read more
He worked with passion in any task he was given and once he finished with weeding most of the tomato field he got into the building of our straw clay house in witch he showed the same skills and passion as in every task.
