About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Build our collective farm place and raise our children.

ABOUT ME

Hi! We are Agathe and Julien. We met in a choir 10 years ago. In 2014-2015, we decided to take a 1 year break from our occupations to travel by bike around Belgium, Netherland, Germany, France and Spain. Our goal was to discover the agriculture world doing wwoofing, and to visit some co-housing projects.
We came back and found other people to start a collective farming place.

Agathe is 29 years old. She's a daughter of organic farmers. As an osteopath, she can take care of your body if you need and cure some problems. But be careful: what she does is NOT massage :)

Julien is 37 years old, tall, vegetarian, very ecologic. A little bit artist (theater, danse, choral songs), a little bit activist (against advertising). He has been working 4 years in organic food shops. Now he is a beginner farmer, growing all sorts of veggies.

Eléa is 3 years old and goes to school. She knows a few words of english, spanish, german, russian and chinese :)
Sven is 1 year old and lives happily his little boy life. Sometime crying, sometime laughing, always learning!

PHILOSOPHY

The present world is very complicated. We should do less but better. Pay more attention to "be" rather than to "have". And stop damaging our planet.
