Biological-dynamical farming with permacultural background

Our farm is located 20 km from the East coast, 30 km southwest of Kalmar.

When we took over the farm in November 2006, the biodynamical farming has been practiced for more than 25 years. We added our animals (2 horses, 35 sheep, 30 goats, 5 pigs, a couple of hens and ducks, 2 dogs and 2 cats) and our dream of permaculture.

We - that are Bo and Katrin Schwere with our 5 sons, Felix and Gerrit (both 22, studying and only here during the holidays), Julius (17), Anton (15), Jonathan (7), our daughter Madeleine (18) and our exchange students Imke(18) and Sebastian (16).

We are growing a number of different vegetables, berries and corn. Our animals are for meat-delivery, but we have plans of cheese production in the future. So the work can be all from working on the fields, taking care of the animals, building and renovating up to creating new growing-areas.

There are 5 beds in the little house. Bicycles are available. We are cooking and eating together in the main house.

It's a lot of sociable life on the farm besides the seasonable celebrations, such as midsummer.

Welcome!
