    Description

    Hello to you ~

    this is to those who would like to be immersed in a wild place & tend to a garden where shiny lizards sunbathe.

    i'm julia & i live in a little, old house, nestled on the side of a mountain. my partner & i moved here during autumn 2017, after having been led to this region two times the years before. it all aligned in the most beautiful way & we found the place our hearts wished for, surrounded by meadows, forest & mountains.

    i am an artist & herbalist who is devoted to the earth, plant & animal kin. In many ways, my work with the plant kin has become one of the most beautiful ways for me to connect with other humans.

    If you are an herbalist or artist who is looking for a place to be for a while~ reach out.

    Our place is very secluded, hermit like & immersed in nature.
    We are living slowly & in connection with the land & seasons, We live together with three dogs, who are our closest companions. During summer, my days are quite full with tending to the garden and following my herbcraft.
    I practice yoga since ten years, which is a deeply nourishing & beautiful practice for me.

    I am looking for a few kind hearted & weird humans to help out a bit on the land & in the house,
    so that i can read out more poems to the lizards & dip my feet into the pond,
    watch the flowers dance in the wind & the frogs dive into the water
    & walk where my heart pulls me whenever i like ~

    The land has it's own ways & we leave a lot of space for those to unfold. So there are no big building projects & no big transformations of the landscape. All that happens comes into being slowly & after feeling into what is needed, what is wanted by the land. i am inspired by forest gardening and by permaculture design & principles ,but i feel that it all comes back to not simply apply human visions onto the land but rather to find ways that feel like moving together.

    there are small tasks in & around the garden,
    there is the daily getting water from the mountain spring on the land,
    there are many little fruit trees to be tended to, to be watered & mulched,
    there is the berry garden that continues to come into being,
    food for the compost pile to be gathered,
    a little space for chickens to be made that you can help with if you like,
    there are gentle tasks around and in the house,
    there is a big fruit harvest (most years) in late summer, early autumn.

    Other things that come to my mind are a little winter garden i would like to create behind the house with old wooden windows i have gathered, if that interests you, you are welcome to join.

    That is what i can think of for now.
    As you might see,
    this is for those who are looking for a calm place to be, who wish to find connection with the earth, who have a sense and feeling for others ( not just the human kin) & their surrounding.

    I truly enjoy company of those who are kind hearted. Who know nuance. Who care. Who prefer birdsong over constant human chatter and are also okay with spending time by themselves, who keep seeking queer and creative concepts of gender and family.

    If you would like to learn about herbs, flowers, medicinal gardening or sustainable wild crafting, i am happy to share my skills & knowledge with you~


    a sort of disclaimer:
    please only write to me if you are someone who loves dogs and respects them. who doesn't see them as merely pets who have to submit or constantly behave the way humans wants. we always interact with our dogs in a respectful way, they are not used to loud dominance and useless harsh body language but instead to connection, respect and clear communication. It is necessary for you to have a similar approach to being with them and building relationship.

    also, please don't write if you are into conspiracy things, theories etc.
    in case you feel sick or have been sick (covid, flu symptoms, etc) it is important for me that you mention that & are someone who takes care of the people around you, has the awareness to do so without me having to first ask you about it.

    If you are still here reading this
    reach out.
    welcome!
    A warm hello your way,
    let me offer you a cup of tea ~

    This place is so beautiful, wild & abundant, i look forward to share it with you ~
