Our organic farm in Buzau county Romania gets a lot of attention as it has a very special story – growing vegetables not only as a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture project) for a consumer group in Bucharest and Buzau, but also for the children at the AMURTEL Family. The media loves it that an American is embodying the popular Romanian dream of having a farm in the village. Indeed, the traditional life of the Romanian village I believe is one of the hidden treasures of this beautiful country, and it is no wonder that everyone dreams of the rural countryside with so much romanticism.
In reality – I do spend a lot of time in the city, directing AMURTEL’s activities, but I just love my escapes to the farm and children’s home as often as possible.
Here are two pieces from this season:
On AgroTV:
“The Romanian Dream, as lived by an American woman in Buzau”
On Kanal D:
“An American woman sells organic vegetables to Romanians”
