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!

Garden
One kilo of white and yellow seed onions, more than 150 garlic cloves, some red beets seeds, peas, mange-touts and broad beans have touched our soil. Two weeks earlier than last year: Belana, Magda and Vera, covered with a thick layer of straw and hopefully our neighbours will again not notice that I did plant potatoes before Ice Saints (half May!!). We love early potatoes so it is hard to wait another 8 weeks before local traditions and beliefs allow us to put our first tubers into the soil.
