  Description

  Hello! Geia Sas!
  
  First of all, please only contact us if you are interested in staying in our project in 2024 for a period of at least 2 months.
  We are looking in particular for people that would like to live and learn in a self sufficient sustainable small community and are open to vegetable garden managers that could take over most of the work of our vegetable gardens (300-400m2).
  
  Are you looking for a place in nature,
  where off the grid living is the most normal thing there is.
  Where your fresh veggies travel no more than 150 m to your plate and you can compare flavour and effect of two different fresh water sources?
  
  We can offer a place in our 1,5ha eco farm for you to learn about regenerative agriculture, creating food forests, landscaping, natural building, water and energy management, preserving food, livestock care, nature's home pharmacy and many more aspects of natural living.
  
  We are Chenny and Steven, a couple, living here now for almost 11 years. We built our little paradise from scratch. We found this poor abandoned land and turned it into an oasis with thriving gardens and nature. We've built 6 natural buildings and are by now quite skilled in a diverse gamma of building techniques (cob, lime, tadelakt, wood).
  
  Our farm is situated at 750m in the north Peloponnese just outside the tiny village Seliana and is surrounded by vast mountains, rivers and waterfalls.
  
  For beach and sea lovers, we are half an hour drive from the to sea and shops. We have a blossoming community of neighbors that we see often for a gathering. This can be African drumming or other spontaneous jam sessions, yoga, an outdoor cinema or just a cup of tea or coffee and a chat.
  
  Are you interested in staying this season with us? After having volunteers for many years we aim for people that have a specific interest in this way of life and wish to be fully immersed in off grid living. We offer a deep learning experience through participation in all the activities of the project and a space to explore your interest in natural living under experienced guidance. Staying with us means you'll take up a responsibility for certain aspects of the farm and not just carrying out tasks from the task list.
  
  We are looking for people with an interest for a long term stay with a minimum of 6 months, in the period between April and October. Contact us for more detailed information.

  Aide

  We stimulate everybody to get really a part of the farm. We cook and share meals together, you will be actively integrated in taking care of our animals (chickens, cats, maybe pigs). We will work together in the garden, harvest, preserve food, teach about soil, landscape design, natural building, herbal medicine and herbal cosmetics. Days start after breakfast, times vary during the seasons. We are looking in particular for people willing to stay long term, carpenter and cooking skills are really welcome, but most of all people that are looking for a life like ours and looking for an introduction or an example.
