More and more people want to live and work in rural areas. And fortunately there are many opportunities because thousands of farmers across Europe stop farming and leave their farms. Two 60+ couples who want to live more social, sustainable, green and small scale, developed the concept Erfdelen or farmyard sharing for for people who want to live at a more social, sustainable, green and small scale in the Netherlands. The concept includes four small new separate houses and one in the old farm and other parts of the farm building which can be used for collective things like guest rooms, now and then cooking together or making music. The Erfdelen concept makes it easier to share cars, washing machines, lawn mowers, etc. or to produce your own vegetables, to have your own water supply and to handle your own wastewater.
