The experience

This project was born from the desire to care for the land, for people, and for the relationships between sentient beings according to the principles of permaculture. Volunteers can help improve the existing habitat by tending the vegetable garden 🌱, the compost bin, building small nests, and even a dry toilet (compost toilet). Enjoy a deep connection with nature, help create a sustainable habitat, and join our ecological sanctuary! 🍃

Program Details

🇪🇸 Our project is a dream come true, focused on harmony and biodiversity. We are looking for volunteers who want to immerse themselves in a holistic lifestyle. You will be part of a conscious ecosystem where we prioritize caring for the Earth and for people. 🌍


Activities & Shift

🇪🇸 Our routine adapts to the needs of the garden and the space improvement projects, such as optimizing the irrigation system. It is a constant flow with nature. 🌿

- Supervision and care of the garden's irrigation system.
- Organization and maintenance of the seedlings.
- Placement and organization of the firewood.
- Mulching and compost bin management.
- Eco-friendly construction of nests for birds and dry toilets.


Rules

🇪🇸 This is a permaculture project... plastic waste and other materials are reduced to a minimum... water is a precious resource since we rely on rainwater harvesting and a reserve cistern; detergents and soaps are all plant-based, we do not pollute the earth.
