Description
A small organic farm at the top of the mountain (800 m). I live with my two children part time. I grow vegetables and have chestnut trees. I sell with weekly baskets and on local markets. I need some help mainly for the garden and for the preparation of chesnuts products, also some building renovation projects. Here you can learn about the entire cycle of vegetable production, from field to plate. In your free time, you can hike in the nature, go to the medieval village of Désaignes, where you can swim in the river (5 km).

Bonjour à tous!

In august 2011, I spent 3,5 weeks at Richard's farm . It was a pleasant stay.

Richard was very welcoming and it wasn't difficult to start a conversation with him. The work wasn't too hard, either, and consisted generally in picking fruits, weeding, helping with arranging the baskets for the market at Lamastre or for other… read more clients, washing-up, helping with cooking, buying some bread at the market or comparable things. It's important to say that, at Richard's, there are no fix working hours. You have to become integrated in the circle of his family and his friends, which is not too difficult, particularly when you're the only work-awayer (which I was only for 1,5 weeks). You have certainly to be quite patient with kids because he has a son of six years who loves to get your attention very often. ;-) But you can ask for some recreation if you need it. Additionally, you can use the internet, whenever you ask for! That was very nice, because I could even print my flight ticket!

As Richard took me to two markets (Lamastre, Colombier-le-Vieux), to a side-car-reunion in St. Agrève (where he and his friends cooked biologically), to some other clients (a biological products market, for example) and to some of his friends , I was able to explore the beautiful nature of the Ardèche.

The accommodation was simple (no electricity in the caravane (but quite comfortable. I slept had an amazing view on the Doux valley. The weather was mostly very good (sunshine nearly all the time), the food simple, but delicious and it was nearly always biological because it came directly out of Richard's huge garden.

Richard is a little bit revolutionary in his points of view, which was quite inspiring. I think I returned with many new ideas to Germany, mainly about biological agriculture, the need (?) of electricty, but also political subjects. It was very interesting to hear his opinions. We also watched a few films on the agriculture subject. I also learned a lot of new practical things (making a vinaigrette, making a cake out of chestnut cream and eggs, making marmelade) and fruits I'd never seen before in nature (p.e. mangel or beetroot).

Thank you, Richard! I hope, it was as pleasant for you as for me! And thank you again for giving me un pot de crème de marron. Le pot est bien arrivé en Allemagne et d'après ma famille et moi, la crème est délicieuse!

Best wishes,
Sophie

Richard, Nicole, and the whole family was extremely welcoming and made me feel right at home among their bustling life. Each individual is accepting, open-minded, and wholly unique, which contributed to this beautiful mosaic. This was my first workaway experience and it was so rewarding. The landscape is next to none, and the food is nourishing… read more

Bonjour a tous,
I stayed with Richard, Nicole, Esteban, Emeric and Ambre during this summer (July) in Ardeche for three weeks.
This was my first work-away experience so I was a little nervous to start with but it didn't take long to feel comfortable because Nicole and the kids were very happy and hospitable hosts.
As the caravan was not quite… read more

I had a 3-weeks stay with Richard and his family in january/febuary 2015. it was my third WA experience and it really was good!

The whole family is really kind and you're seen as a part of the family. They like to share and teach you their way of living and everything they know. Émeric, Ambre and Esteban, the three children are just adorable!… read more
