Wow, Jen, I'm impressed you found the property's website! I hadn't mentioned it because and I was interested in starting a dialogue, and I thought that with a website my message would sound too much like an ad for that.

Thank you for your compliments, it's a treat to read something so positive.

Do you think this is the right place to come across people who could connect with the property and my succession question?
Looking forward to your insights.

Wishing you a fun weekend,

Wolfgang

Hi,

My name is Wolfgang. In 1991, inspired by the biodynamic movement, I started my farm in Australia. I designed it after permaculture principles. Over 20+ years, I planted one third of the 36 acres with native rain forest. Another third is planted with orchards: bananas, 80 avocados, 60 mangoes, 200 olives, 200 pecans, citrus and many more.
Now in my mid-seventies, I want to retire and start a new chapter in my life, which means selling the property. I have been dreaming that the next person who steps in will have similar sensitivities to self-sufficiency and sustainability so that there is some continuation for my work. Originally I came from Germany, and I have a feeling that the farm will best fit someone from North America or Europe. I say this having seen hundreds of visitors and woofers from all countries.

I don't know if this is the right place to look for people who may be interested. If not, I would be very grateful for any thoughts and help because I'm not very good with modern ways of advertising and I'm sure a lot of people here are younger and more skilled with the internet. Somehow I have been having a feeling that the right person is on the way but I also feel the need to light a beacon.


Blessings,

Wolfgang
