  Description

  Hi, my name is Juliette, and I am 51 years old, and I have a son who is 25 years old. We are looking to create and establish a long term, lifelong and everlasting food forest as well as find friends and family to plant, create, care and maintain this food forest. So that everyone who looks after and cares for this food forest always has food and water and nobody runs out of food and water due to droughts, wars, famines, diseases or political unrest. So all those who help plant and create and maintain this food forest will always have food to eat and their will be an abundance of food and a beautiful oasis. We are creating a peaceful and calm environment. Also so we can reduce the harm being done to our family, friends, people, the earth and our natural environment in our local area surrounding us. We are creating this food forest by making large vegetable gardens and planting lots of fruit trees, as well as learning to live off grid and self-sufficient as much as possible so we will be less effected by the droughts and wars, famines, diseases etc. Although we are not fully off grid and self-sufficient. We are trying to learn all off grids skills as much as possible so we can stop supporting the harm as quickly as possible and so that we can pass these skills and knowledge onto our future children and grandchildren, and descendants as well as future friends. We are into organic vegetable gardening, food preserving, food growing, food storing, seed saving as well as animal care, building natural shelters, all that comes with building such as plumbing, water harvesting etc. We are interested in and learning about beekeeping, breadmaking, bushcraft survival skills, and also permaculture, organic gardening and biodynamics. My son has had some experience in all these fields of endeavors some more than others. He has lived off grid on various farms and have skills to share. If anyone is keen or interested in sharing their knowledge, ideas, skills, effort, labor or time in any or all of these points of interest please feel free to contact us. WE ARE LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN LIVING OFF GRID AND SELF-SUFFICENT LONG TERM OR FOR THE REST OF THERE LIVES WHICH EVER TOWN OR COUNTRY OR PROVINCE OR STATE THAT THEY CHOOSE TO BE IN. We are very clean living, we don't use drugs, we don't smoke, and we don't consume alcohol and we have no addictions. We are searching for family and future family and friends to help us create and maintain this peaceful, beautiful food forest oasis. I, (Juliette), have three adult sons. We are located in Longreach, Queensland, Australia.
