Description
A project of protecting and taking care of a part of land 2.6 ha (6.5 acres) surrounded by forest near Sevnica, Slovenia.
You can help in the garden, kitchen, construction tasks, forest, decorative and artistic work...
The vision is to create a community of people who share the same goal — taking care of the land and growing spiritually.
Right now it is just me Aleksander staying permanently on the property with my cat Mici.
So far on this property there is a main house (made of wood, straw and clay), a workshop, storage house, 2 gardens, 4 different kind od composting sites (kitchen, WC, wood and tree-leaves + urine) and an orchard (apples, pears, peaches, plums, grapes, chestnuts, walnuts and a young asimina tree). Since there is no municipal water supply nor a sewer system we built our water supply system and constructed wetland to purify the waste water from kitchen and toilet. So we use 2 kinds of toilets — a normal flush toilet and a compost toilet.
A professional permaculture designer is helping to develop the property in the most sustainable way.
Soon also animals will be added to the property (chicken, goats...)
We live in harmony with nature as much as possible, a holistic lifestyle where we take care to create and nourish ourselves with quality food and natural products. The meat and vegetables we eat are always local and organic and we welcome you to enjoy this with us. Meat is not too often on the menu. There is space here to enjoy a lot of peace, quiet time and also some fun after working. Overall, communication, honesty, openness and integrity as well as playfulness is higly appreciated. The property is a non-smoking place.
More than 2 people can be hosted in summer time when it is warm enough to camp or stay in a camper, but when it gets cold (November - April) a room with bunk bed is available where 2 people can stay.
Also a video about the property made by a workawayer is available. Type in Youtube "Experience Slovenia up close via Workaway" or ask me for the link since I can not find a way to post a link here.Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre
