Description
Hello, We try to produce as many things as possible that allow us to be almost food self-sufficient: lambs, vegetables, cereals then flour with our astriated mouin then bread, vegetables, fruit, goat cheese, poultry, mushrooms, honey, fish and recently a small citrus and banana plantation under our new building at an altitude of 800m in the Alps). We are self-sufficient (except tractors) in energy with solar panels, hydraulic turbine, Jean Pain reactor and biogas which allows us to run our car on CNG (JeanPhilippe has written a book "biogas-practical manual" to explain the operation and the techniques to achieve it in self-construction) There are many different things, so you will have to touch on many areas if you feel like it. We like to take the time to eat well. Lunch together, morning and evening to be decided together. We need motivated and autonomous people! It is almost essential to have already used DIY or construction tools. In any case have a minimum of the habit of using your hands To avoid spam, please put the phrase "SUNFLOWER" in your message if you write to us. Don't forget otherwise the message may not arrive. See you soon, jeanPhilippe, Sandrine, Elio (10 years old), Prunelle (8 years old)
Bonjour,
Nous essayons de produire un maximum de choses qui nous permettent d'être en quasi autonomie alimentaire : agneaux, légumes, céréales puis farine avec notre mouin astrié puis du pain, légumes,fruitiers, fromage de chèvre, volailles, champignons, miel, poissons et depuis peu une petite plantation d'agrumes et de bananier sous notre nouveau batiment de notre petite ferme à 800m d'altitude dans les alpes.
Nous sommes autonome (sauf tracteurs) en énergie avec des panneaux solaires, turbine hydraulique, réacteur Jean Pain et du biogaz qui nous permet(tait, (en cours de remise en route) de faire rouler notre voiture au GNV (JeanPhilippe a écrit un livre "biogaz-manuel pratique" pour expliquer le fonctionnement et les techniques pour le réaliser en autoconstruction)
Il y a beaucoup d'actigvités différentes, aussi vous serez amené à toucher à beaucoup de domaines si vous vous le sentez.
On aime bien prendre le temps de bien manger. Repas du midi ensemble, matin et soir à décider ensemble.
On a besoin de gens motivés et autonomes !
Pour éviter les spams, merci de mettre la phrase "TOURNESOL " dans votre message si vous nous écrivez. N'oubliez pas sinon le message risque de ne pas arriver.
A bientôt,
jeanPhilippe, Sandine, Elio (11 ans), Prunelle (9 ans)

You will probably work a lot but you will also learn a lot because we have many activities and several projects in progress (biogas, silvopastoralism, caravan, walipini greenhouse...). We are energy and food self-sufficient (we can live in good health without buying anything but we like chocolate, coffee...).
Languages you speak
Vous travaillerez probablement beaucoup mais vous apprendrez aussi beaucoup car nous avons de nombreuses activités et plusieurs projets en cours (biogaz, sylvopastoralisme, roulotte, serre walipini ...). Nous sommes en autonomie énergétique et alimentaire (nous pouvons vivre en bonne santé sans rien acheter mais on aime le chocolat, le café ...).
Aide
You will help on all aspects that allow us to be self-sufficient. There is a lot of construction work. for example this summer 2022, trailer construction, low-cost biogas digester construction for developing countries, solar ovens, stone wall
Vous aiderez sur tous les aspects qui nous permettent d'être en autosuffisance. Il y a beaucoup de travail de construction mais aussi tous ce qui concerne directement laproduction agricole : jardin, vissite brebis alpage, faire du pain ou des fromages
