Romantica Ecovillage


I have 11 hectares certified eco farm in the most beautiful part of Poland – in the region called The Green Lungs of Poland – for its pure nature and clean air. The region geographical name is The Hilly Masuria – for its hilly landscape full of small clean fish lakes and charming ponds rich in frogs.

My farm consist of 5 ha pastures where graze my wonderful, colourful horses and white friendly milk goats and my rancho consists of 5 another hectares of young orchard where I have planted 2500 fruit trees – apple trees, pear trees, plumb trees, cherry trees. I keep also some hens for eggs.

I  have here also around 1 hectare of forest and several ponds and charming streams.

I live in a 300m2 big house which I partially renovated. In the house there are right now 2 bedrooms and two bathrooms, 2 kitchens, huge basement in which I plan to build sauna and Turkish bath. At the top of the  house there is huge spacey attic which I want change into a comfortably apartment. Downstairs there is the third room with bathroom which needs to be finished.

Apart from that, I have two big stables. One of them I want to redesign into a hostel for travellers and couch surfers.

I am also considering building new house – just for rent.

In this spring I am going to grow vegetables in the big garden – in order to be sure, that I will have enough food for volunteers, couch surfers and other travellers.

I don’t have a tractor and my horses are not trained yet to work in field, so this spring I will have to hire a tractor and find a trainer who would train my horses (or at least the big and strong like a dragon stallion) and make them work in the garden and forest.

My property guard two brave dogs. My grain and food guard one little but very special cat :) The cat is little, but her character is big ;))) Telling truth – all my animals  have visible characters :) Each of them!

Besides I plan to breed here geese – for eggs and for meat. Apart from geese – I want to buy new cows (the old ones I have eaten) – in order to breed them for milk and their female calves for cows and male calves – for meat or for sell.

My aim is to be independent from the economical system as much as possible and be self-sufficient as much as possible... :)

As a Nature Lover I worship simple life close to the Mother Nature. I love Earth, Sun, wind, frost and each of 4 climatic seasons. Each of them is special and has its role in the Nature life.
So I love winter which makes all world white and so clean, which kills bad insects and lets plants to rest. I do love springtime – when wild life awakes and starts to sing from happiness making me inspired, I love hot summer time – when Nature is so rich in greenness around full of happy animals grazing in the warmth of the Sun, I appreciate autumn when we collect fruits and vegetables...

I am experienced farmer and would like to share my knowledge, projects and amazing paradise with other Nature Lovers.

I am also considering establishing a new ecovillage – so some of you could stay here for a long period of time. I have already a name for it – it would be Romantica Ecovillage :)

I believe that place make not only scenic landscape, but also people, so I would like to invite at my farm positive people full of good energy and emotions...

So if you feel like taking part in my projects or just want to rest from noisy and fast city life
come and join me :) I would be very happy to host here every good person :)  

Love and Life,
Isabelle

Paradise Park Project Poland



Hello Nature Lovers!

I have just started clearing my little forest of about 1 ha in the North Eastern part of Poland where I would like to create a kind of beautiful and useful paradise park with flowers, nuts, berries, mushrooms - all these goods for people wanting to spend here their vacation at my Ranch during spring, summer or in the autumn.

The landscape around is amazing and the nature really pure and abundant in wild animals, especially wild birds. You can easily see here wild animals like boars, roes, foxes, hares, hawks and many many rare wild birds.

If someone would like to join me helping in anyway, from now or later in the spring/summer months, I would be really happy... as I am really looking for people who would like to participate, hopefully also in a long-term way.

Any kind of contribution would be appreciated, as the ideas are many and the place offers lots of possibilities: first of all clearing and making spacey and beautiful Paradise Park full of berries and other goods, then in spring sowing vegetables in a big organic garden, in summer some garden work and renovating the farm house and other farm buildings, organising interesting workshops and trips... and what else we can imagine! Maybe permanent ecovillage??? :)))

At the moment I live here in a farm house, where I can host CouchSurfers or volunteers and provide food for them.

I hope to hear from someone soon! Especially from creative and interesting people :)

Love and life,
Isabelle
