The Experience

I need help especially on gardening, including harvesting, planting, sawing, multiplying, drying, preparing food for preservation, cooking and everything around the garden. I am building some green houses, solar dehydrator & renovating the farm mainly with recycled materials. We share the breakfast and lunch, I usually do some intermittent fasting so I am not eating in the evening, you can prepare your dinner when and where you want.

Increíble experiencia, muy buen anfitrion que realmente te acoge como un amigo. Una gran experiencia para aprender de la permacultura, se respetan tiempos para el trabajo y las comidas. Jean-Michel es flexible y comprensivo con cualquier duda o problema. Realmente de las mejores experiencias como viajero que he tenido.

Malheureusement mon séjour à the project est fini. C'était plus d'un mois d'apprentissage, discussions intelligentes, contact avec la nature et de memoire inoubliables. L'hôte est une personne extrêmement sympa, il m'a aidé toujours quand j'ai eu besoin. Il m'a volontairement amené à connaître la ville de Carnac et les autre villes aux allentours. C'est une expérience transformatrice à ne pas rater. Magnifique !!!
