We Bought An Abandoned Farm in France - One Year Progress

Follow
Domaine Sauvage

This video is a timelapse on our first year in France. In June 2023 we took a leap of faith and purchased a neglected 34acre farm in the Dordogne region of Southern France. From the moment we arrived, we were faced with the enormous task of clearing the overgrown vegetation and cleaning the property’s old buildings. The farm included a cute but rundown farmhouse, several barns in need of repair, and a small ruin. One of our first projects was transforming one of the structures into a chicken coop, and we soon began settling into the farmhouse, making it our home.

The journey has been filled with challenges. From repairing barn beams infested with woodworm to preparing for the winter by installing a woodstove and setting up solar panels, every day brought new hurdles. Philippe took on most of the heavy physical labor, digging trenches to address water issues and clearing contaminated soil, while I focused on video editing, managing paperwork, and caring for Odin.

Despite relentless rain and unexpected setbacks, we’ve made significant progress. By spring 2024, we had started our vegetable garden, rescued an old tractor hidden in the brambles, and cleaned out a junk site to name a few things. While the road has been tough, our determination to restore this farm and try to live a more sustainable life keeps us moving forward. As we continue this journey, we hope our story inspires others to chase their dreams and find joy in the process.
