Taking care of my farm in traditional ways while exploring Tepeköy, Turkey

  Description

  My name is Ercan. It has always been my life goal to build a farm, and after many years I finally made it happen. Now I am happy to open this place to people from around the world. I am now living with İsaïa, my girlfriend from France.
  The farm is 150 acres, we have 3 houses, located in a beautiful oak forest. We have vineyards, olive trees, fruit and nut trees, a vegetable garden, and animals such as goats, sheep, chickens and bees. We produce honey, dairy products and many other things in small quantities, but with a focus on good quality. We have 2 cats and we hope to have dogs soon.
  My goal is to slowly build a self-sufficient farm. We are learning little by little directly on the land, and it is very motivating to see the place grow and improve over time. Whenever we get curious about something or have a new idea, we like to try it and turn it into a project.
  This place is perfect for people who enjoy nature, simple living and learning by doing. We like to share knowledge, ideas and good moments together.

  Aide

  I started the farm 4 years ago, and I could accomplish much more with extra help.
  Most of the help needed is with gardening, cooking, cleaning, building, and taking care of the animals (chickens, goat, sheeps). It also depends on the season. In spring the main work is gardening and planting vegetables. In autumn we focus more on producing wine, olives and olive oil. We also make molasses from grapes and pears.
  Help from permaculture experts or experienced farmers is especially valuable for us, but any of your skills could be useful. We are always open to new suggestions and ideas.
  In the future I would like to plant many kinds of medicinal herbs, grow mushrooms, make natural fertilizers and experiment with new gardening techniques.
  Do not hesitate to contact me if you would like more details about the kind of help needed.

  Hébergement

  We provide a stone house with 2 rooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and a private toilet. It also includes WiFi and fresh spring water from the mountain behind us for drinking, and a beautiful view on the island and the lake.
  We provide two meals a day and snacks. Most of the time we cook and eat together (we are two people here) but you can also eat by yourself if you prefer. We mostly cook ourselves but we are always happy to try different cuisines.
  In summer we usually have a late breakfast and an early dinner.

  Our farm is surrounded by forests and hills with many nice hiking spots. The town center, with bars and places to socialize, is about a 20-minute drive from the farm. In summer there are many festivals, concerts and gatherings happening on the island.
  We make a fire very often at night and enjoy the Milky Way, which can be seen clearly on most nights.
