  Description

  Aide

  Help with planting and creating the permaculture garden.
  We have now put up a fence around the garden to keep roedeer, rabbits and hares out. April is the time for sowing and planting. Also we will lay irrigation to/in the garden. None of these are great and lengthy jobs but all in all there is enough tasks to do to keep a few people bussy. By April the weather in the Netherlands is usually quite pleasant.
  On top of all this part of the basement needs to be cleared so we can build (with your help) new racks to make better use of the space. Great tasks for rainy days!

  Autres infos...

  This is a highly popular area for bicycle tours. The landscape is very diverse, mostly flat, suited for a push-bike (which is available). In the vicinity there are a number of castles, some of which date back to the early 1300's. Some of these are open to the public, others open up their gardens.
