„Current Needs“

Barter for your stay, e.g.
Right now we are looking for someone, who builds a raised bed, which obviously will increase the beauty of our property even more.

Would be great, if someone could help building a permaculture bed, so that we all learn from each other.

We are looking also for someone, who cuts or stacks wood, nontheless to be finally prepared for the winter.

If someone is a photograph or has a drone, we would appreciate professional photos or drone videos for our website.

In addition we are also planning to have some construction work to trade, which might give you some idea:
– an outdoor kitchen with barbecue and bread/pizza oven
– a safe fireplace
– several seating areas with sturdy table and chairs
– Construction of a greenhouses
– Installation of a solar-powered garden irrigation system
