🏢 About the local organisation
In times of global warming and rising inequalities in the world, we need to rethink our way of living and the way we use resources. Friedmunt Sonnemann is someone who has been living consistently a simple life for many years and made an alternative lifestyle a reality [check out](https://youtu.be/Zu_NPtxZtrQ). He cultivates rare and forgotten crop plants whose seeds he sells to allotment gardeners. The remote cottage is an hour's walk uphill from the wine-growing town Bernkastel-Kues. There is neither running water nor electricity in the house. Therefore there is a common room, spring water, and a telephone. Would you like to face this new experience and be inspired to live an alternative and resource-saving lifestyle?
