My perception of the typical Slovakian construction worker lunch has been adjusted; I started cooking big quantities of sausages, backed potatoes and fried onions but it appears that they prefer home made tomato soup, pumpkin pancakes and red beet salad!
Welcome on our “Living on a farm in Slovakia – Blog”. In May 2008 we have bought a smallholding in Slovakia without ever having seen it and we have moved to our farm in September 2008. Since then we have started to get acquainted with our neighbours, learn the Slovak language, renovate the house, regain our land from nature and we have actually started to farm on our land in spring 2009. On this blog you can follow our progress and setbacks. Have fun reading it!

Vegetable feast
Our garden continues to produce a lot of vegetables (and weeds, insects and work) which is very useful since we now have many people around to help us with our roofs.
