Help us build future for the EARTH!!!!
Come and experience real live and eat real food, and do something for our future generations to return this Earth in a better state than the one we were passed on by our ancestors!
Hello!
We are a family based biodynamic community farming associacion in South Bohemia St.Michael’s Farm and we are looking for people with enthusiasm and workskill that want to come along and help us build an educational centre for kids from basic and high schools, laymen and professionals that want to learn more about companion planting and biodynamic preparations and agriculture and healthy lifestyle.
We are a family of 7 but the eldest kids are already more off than on the farm :)
We enjoy community and have already built a small one here that needs to grow and we welcome open-hearted people that do not mind to work, talk deep spiritual discussions as well as just have fun while working. We offer accomodation and food and also our skills to share, that include cheese making, sourdough bread baking, tending the farm animals, vegetable growing, orchard work etc. We have two cows, seven goats, two horses, poultry, and usually also a pig. We aim for self-sufficiency and sustainability, which means organic food only, mainly only from our farm, reuse, recycle, and live in peace with the surrounding and nature. Our finance is limited but we are currently applying for grants, in order to make this 16 year old adventure a bit more forward – for we have all but a lot of money :D
We live in a natural park in the middle of meadows and woods and our little village only has 10 permanent inhabitants (including us). We farm on 7 hectars, two of those are attached to the house, the veggies grow on 5000 m2, two greenhouses of abour 60 m2. We have two ponds with fish and really agreat variety of possible activities, and we will be grateful for any help that comes our way for it makes our dream come true, for the kids to be closer to the hands on experience „from cow to cheese“, „from grain to bread“ etc.
We would like to find people with kindred souls, a person or a couple that want to work here a couple of weeks or maybe all summer, maybe longer, who have carpenter skills, are handy, quick to learn, don’t mind work and know how to relax, and who want pehaps to learn someting new. So if you feel you are the person/people, come and help us. We can help you in return, teaching you farming skills, offer you a place in a wohnhauses, offering a break from the town and electronic society, social networks, teaching you bread baking, cheese making, hebrbal healing, discussing biodynamic agriculture, anthroposophy, various religions and more.
We speak English, Francais, son Deutsch, and many more languages so if you feel the calling, contact us and let’s get the ball running!!! <3i
