The experience

We are looking for free-spirited people to come and help us make this place great again.
On the premises we do masonry, carpentry, building with cob and many more, basically we like to work with all kinds of natural materials. We would like to erect a solarium, fix the fence around the premises, build drainage around the house, and build a cellar out of natural materials.

Activities & Shift

You work for 4 to 5 hours a day, 5 days a week, and in return, we give you accommodation in a yurt tent, with everything needed. We love to cook delicious meals so that's also included, and we love to stay and chat in the evening and learn more about our visitors.

The activities can vary, from gardening (no dig & permaculture), to digging the drainage, re-building an old wall, or repairing the wooden fence.
We will be with you every step of the way, as we do everything on our own.
The work is meant to be fun.
