    Descrição

    You're welcome here in the green hills in the heart of Croatia!

    We are looking for nature lovers who want to help us grow a village-community on our 12 hectares of terrain where we live a sustainable, more and more self reliant life in the countryside.
    Our vision is to grow our permaculture homestead into a community (that we call village) with like-minded , like-hearted people in an edible landscape. We think that living independent, in harmony with nature, growing your own food and growing connections with people is what the planet needs.

    We host volunteers through our non-profit NGO.

    We are looking for chefs who would like to have fun in the kitchen and farm-to-table cook with our son Nol (2004) to "homeschool him as a chef.
    We cook on wood, we like to ferment (kombucha, kefir, water kefir, kvass, sauerkraut, kimchi, turshya), bake bread (also sourdough), smoke meat and fish, we have made our own sausages... Cooking here is fun and we can exchange lots of techniques!

    We're also looking for hands-on handypersons to help Peter build another shepherd's hut/tiny home as a start of our village.

    We teach people about permaculture and Cultural Emergence / social permaculture.
    Our "rich forest" is a LAND demonstration site for the Permaculture Association Britain and Barbara has her permaculture Diploma (mentored by Looby Macnamara, "People and Permaculture") also through this organisation.

    About our family: we live a simple, healthy, holistic lifestyle as practical realists. We use permaculture principles and design to develop our terrain and our life. We care for the earth, for the people around us, for the future and we like to share our abundance.
    We aim to make the world a better place by living as sustainable as is practical for us, and we are using permaculture design to setup our systems.

    You need a certain amount of independence, curiosity, flexibility and fun. 
    We welcome you as you and we don't appreciate advocates for a battle that doesn't need to be fought here. Who you are matters for us; not what colors your skin has, what gender you identify with or who you prefer in your bed. That is not an issue here. We have hosted warriors who dominate the atmosphere with what others can or cannot say. We enjoy a light atmosphere and we might not be "politically correct" because we don't believe in politics. We believe in us all being humans and caring for the world.

    Please write a PERSONAL message (to Peter and Barbara) about you, what you want to learn, why, what we can learn from you, your skills and your dream future, so we can setup a good stay for you.

    Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

    We like to share and exchange recipes, music (we have a piano, guitar, wooden flutes, djembe, cajon), inspiring movies, ideas, insights... Peter used to be a blacksmith, Barbara likes to work with wool (spinning, felting, knitting, crochet) and she makes our own herbal health care (tinctures, oils, teas), body care (face & hand creams) and cleaning products (with soda, vinegar, borax, salt, essential oils and such).
    Barbara has her permaculture Diploma and is a (social) permaculture and Cultural Emergence facilitator. Peter coaches people to make (natural) steps in their lives, so you can learn about permaculture and personal development as well.

  • Algo mais...

    Algo mais...

    We're situated on the top of a hill, inland Croatia. The village Vojnic is on a 5km/50 minutes walk distance. In Vojnic there are shops for snacks or other drinks than what we provide (herbal tea, kombucha and bee ron Fridays).

    On Saturdays we sometimes go to the farmers market, to buy things that we don't produce ourselves (yet).

    When it's hot, we go swimming in the river Korana (or Mreznica).

    On a day off you could visit Petrova Gora, Rastoke (beautiful old, wooden village on the river) or the Plitvice lakes & waterfalls (UNESCO monument), or the nice city Karlovac (half hour bus drive). Also the capitol Zagreb is visitable (just over an hour with the bus). The Croatian coast is under 2 hours by car.
