  Descrição

  We are looking for another person to cook, harvest, re-create a Garden, plant Vegetables, help in the gardens, to clean up the kitchen after we eat together, daily tasks and finishing some clay constructions (final layer).
  You will stay in our camper, which has a wood stove inside, so can be heated, if needed.
  We are looking forward to hearing from you.
  
  
  We, Chris (42y.) & Maja (41y) & Nala (11 years old), creating a beautiful and conscious space - for us to live and for others to learn.
  About permaculture gardening, natural building with wood and clay, and "community life" beyond the hippy cliché...
  Soon we want to expand our land and invite other people and especially families to join our project.
  
  My goal is living together in trust & honesty, supporting eachother, enjoying life & getting sh×t done at the same time. 😉
  We all speak German, Portuguese and English. Nala is leaning french ATM with Duolingo. If you speak french she would be very happy to learn more.
  
  We have a little HOUSE (3 rooms) with 0,7 hectar of land around it, on which are also 3 CAMPERVANS.
  There are 3 GARDENS we created during the last year, a couch- and a hammock-lounge, a fireplace and three big trees that provide shade. From 2019 on we planted more than another 90 native trees (really most of them survived) & in 2022 we planted 12 fruit trees. Most of them look like they will make it, even our earth is very clay-ish.
  Oh, and Rhala, our beloved 9-year old dog who loves cuddles and running around.
  
  We are currently
  -re-strucktering Garden nr 3: adding horse-maure (which we have already here), old chicken-manure,
  egg-shells, plant veggis and mulch it at the end;
  -finishing two clay constructions
  -harvesting and improving our gardens...
  -generally making the place more cozy and beautiful.
  
  We are interested in the subjects of Free Love, Radical Honesty, Non Violent Communication, The Work and other tools for communication, self exploration and community-building. We spent quite some time in the 40-year old-community „Tamera“ nearby and participated in various courses. We both are facilitating men / women circles.
  
  We wish for SUPPORT with the following tasks:
  --- maintenance, planting & harvesting of the permaculture GARDENS --- COOKING and HOUSEHOLD stuff
  --- Finishing some clay constructions (final layer) --- optional: DOING FUN STUFF with our kids
  --- setting up a CROWDFUNDING page for our project
