For us, the most important is that the people that come to us are positive, open-minded, and responsible people that are really interested in sustainable living and small-scale farming. Here we are living in a community and all working as a team, and we share the responsibility for the daily shores like household and farm duties. We work hard but we also have a lot of fun.

  Organic methods: We are using traditional small-scale and ecological methods. We are inspired by the methods that were used in area before 1950. We work a lot by hand and with horse-driven machinery most of the time, but also small tractor. We are also inspired by permaculture.
