flämingo farm

In 2017, after traveling for a year throughout Asia, we decided our newest adventure would be to breathe new life into an old farmhouse in Brandenburg. We grow our own vegetables using permaculture methods and keep chickens not only for their eggs, but for their company.

We aim to live a slow and more sustainable life and enjoy sharing our space with others. We want our farm to reflect what we believe in – an escape from the capitalist rat race of the outside world.

The workshop is a practical one – you’ll have a chance to get your hands dirty in our permaculture-food-forest-to-be.
