family seek to create a simple lifestyle in the southern pyrenees

Check out our blog!

hello, we are justin, emanwela and their two children, salix and fabien. we are variously from London, Oxford, Malta, and Scotland! Depends on our moods and the company!
justin and emanwela met on a 'protest site' (Crystal Palace), where j was living in a willow tree (hence Salix's name...) in a magnificent tree house.
we want to reduce our ecological footprint and learn to live a lifestyle in harmony with our environment. trust our food and have happy children.
so we upped sticks and fled the uk in 2000, in an iveco truck that j kitted out beautifully (if you visit us you can stay in the very truck - for a limited time as we may have sold it on). we bought some land and buildings in the village of Fa, in the Aude, France. we are now fairly ensconced, the garden is blooming, the trees are growing, the children are bi-lingual, and the project storms on, with help from plenty of sources.
We love our lifestyle and every day that passes with us throwing less money into the coffers of big business is a day gained for Gaia.

all photos on this website were taken by emanwela, justin, or a visitor.
We started the funny magic sauce farm @ Fa 2004, Mayday.
