Description
Hi guys !
After 10 years working, backpacking and woofing around france and abroad, I moved to the Basque Country in 2015.
I am taking care of an orchard of 300 apple trees (6500 m2) that I have been restoring since 2021.
With the apples I make juice and other products
Since this year, I have also been lent a field (5000 m2) which I am preparing to plant Small Fruits and Aromatic and Medicinal Plants.
My house is located on 4000 m2 of land in Sare. I live there with my 5-year-old daughter Leiane, my dog Jaya and my cat Ninette. My partener Jérôme comes some days.
The area is really very nice, the village is lively and closed (15 min walk) with all comodities (minimarket, bakery, butcher, post office, pharmacy, ATM, several bars and restaurants).Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
SARE is a typical Basque village and there are many events around this culture.
My daughter goes to “Ikastola” (Basque school), speaks “Euskara” and I am learning.
I am bilingual in English, I also speak and understand Spanish.
Jérome speaks Spanish very well.
I have acquired quite a bit of knowledge in organic farming, gardening, DIY and I will be delighted to share with you what I know. But I still have a lot to learn and I like the exchange and to learn from others !Aide
IMPORTANT: Sorry men, for the moment, given the configuration of the place and that I live alone with my daughter most of the time, I only welcome women or possibly couples.
Activities/objectives for this year 2025:
- Finish the processing workshop and the dryer: apples/small fruits/ppam (currently and until the end of July)
- Prepare the field for the installation of small fruits in autumn (March-April-May)
- Continue the vegetable garden (all year)
- Ensure the harvest/processing of apples (Sept-Oct-Nov)
Generally, it's quite physical, so you need to be in good shape and like gardening/creation/recycling
You will participate for 20 hours per week, 5 days/week.
I host workawayers for 2 weeks, with experience, it's the perfect length for everyone ! At least at my place.Langues

Bus departure from the village for Saint Jean de Luz, Bayonne and other villages.
We can advise you based on what you want to do.
Since I can no longer travel very far (or for long) at the moment, I'm happy to welcome people from here and abroad, backpackers, it makes me feel like I'm traveling a little!
I will reply to your request within 48 hours if your profil is detailed and in english (or french)
