1. Beschrijf je project, je plek en de bewoners (inclusief dieren): Note: As our place is quite remote, having youre own transportation makes things a lot easyer .not essential but recommended . Also this summer we will be with less people, so we might not be able to provide company / a host every day it depends on the period you are here .we can discuss this further when we get in contact . And our facilities are very basic atm. We are looking for people who do not mind spending time (working time and free time) by themselves. And who enjoy going back to basic. When this fits you please continue reading We are a community in the north of Spain in the middle of the forest, that consists of 8 people, 2 kids and dogs, cats, chickens. We have been living here since the spring of 2021. Our goal is to live here as self sustainable as possible, we have a big vegetable garden with permaculture standards that provides a big percentage or our food for most of the year, and we have started on planting lots of trees and bushes for a food forest. there are several ruins on our terrain that we are working on, in which we want to create housing, communal spaces where we can hold workshops and a big kitchen where we can proces our harvest. With everything we build we try to use as much natural building principles as possible. A lot of materials we use come from our own land like the clay we use and wooden planks we make from the trees. We live in the forest, in between the villages Fornoles and Valjunuera. They both have a bar and in summer a swimmingpool. Valjunquera has a small supermarket, but we usually go to alcaniz or Valderrobres for our groceries. 2.

Hoe zou de dag van een WWOOFer er op jouw locatie uit kunnen zien (tijdspanne voor deelname aan activiteiten, verwachtingen...)? You will start the morning with some breakfast in the communal kitchen . Then we will do some work which is in the sun or a bit more heavy before the afternoon sun arrives. we will have a big warm lunch somewhere between 1 and 3 dependig on the season and weather , and then some time off in the most warm moments of the day . then in the evening its always time to make sure everything that needs it gets water and make sure the chickens get back in their coup so the foxes wont get them . then we will againg have a meal and relax a bit. There is always one of our group that will be your contactperson, with whom you will plan the week. 4. Jij bent de gids! Vertel over je eigen hobby's (muziek, koken, etc.) en de mogelijkheden in de buurt (wandelen, zwemmen, etc.): We are with 8 different people and have many hobbies. some of us like to go climbing every weekend, we have a cook who likes to make music and all of us love a good party. Also we try to have a movie night now and then. We live in the Matarana, a region with beautifull nature, lots of hiking and climbing places and good swimspots (though they are a bit of a drive). especially in summer there are a lot of activities in the surrounding villages.
