Co-Working in the Country

For some time now, the trend has been for more and more entrepreneurs and self-employed people to stay in the countryside (instead of fleeing to the city) or to move from the city to the countryside - thanks to the ever-improving technical infrastructures and offers.

They are looking for places to work where they can still breathe a sigh of relief, where the clock is ticking a little slower and the surround sound leaves time for their own lifestyle.

The long-term goal of the action is to inspire founders and self-employed people to also develop co-working spaces in the countryside - in the old barn, the village jug, where it fits. The participants are to be encouraged by the project and made fit through coaching.

In addition to information and tools that can be found online, the qualification program 'How to Cowork' is also offered as support for those who have made up their minds. What the organizers hope to get out of it: To bring the digitalization and the founding spirit to the country.


Think Farm Eberswalde
A self-organized co-working and learning space: Think-farm with its whitewashed walls, the warmth of wood everywhere and masses of lush greenery is the perfect place for an eco-social shift. This is where the exciting minds of individuals gather in a cluster of friendly working areas.

There are about 15 work desks in total where professional people from NGOs, remote workers, freelancers, and scholars can work collectively amidst a network of socially and environmentally engaged initiatives or sustainable businesses.

Wittenberge
In the middle of Brandenburg, a Berliner has founded a place for young creative people to work.  They are looking for a simple life in the countryside, between vegetable fields and digital work.

They will not only work in Wittenberge but also live there.  The city has renovated and furnished former workers' flats for them, vacancies are now turned into living space.

The apartments are only a few minutes away from Co-working Space - the new residents pay 150 euros for a room in a shared flat, and only 300 euros for a complete apartment.  They don't have to pay anything for their workplace, the city takes over the lease for the owners of the oil mill.

Projects like this are currently attracting people all over Germany: They all work in creative professions, few of them have a permanent position - among them are a houseboat consultant, a journalist and a filmmaker.  The first floor of the Wittenberg oil mill now belongs to them.  Outside, the Elbe River flows, narrow and gentle at this point, and a nature reserve borders directly on the opposite bank of the river.

The small town of Wittenberge lies halfway between Hamburg and Berlin. The ICE stops here, and if you catch the right connection, you are in the capital in less than an hour.  For sure a great place to live and work - having the advantages of both worlds.
