The community is a land of opportunity and genuine connection - the second you step onto the property you are swept into a world where you can nurture your relationship to the earth (and yourself) through the work and the soul-warming meals around the dinner table with interesting characters that are open to any and all strangeness that you may bring to offer! i learned so much from anne and everyone that i was privileged enough to encounter during my stay, and will forever be grateful for the generosity that was extended to me!

I had the most amazing time here, i adored how we all ate together at the table talking, sharing stories. the working hours are quite flexible so you'll have plenty of time to explore the area too! i truly needed this time in such a green, lovely environment. the meals were super delicious though just a heads up to those who don't like expired food, sometimes you could come across it, which i personally didn't mind:) i will forever cherish this place and the connections i made!!

I had such a great time at Anne's garden. I really loved working on the mosaic and feel inspired to try it at home myself. The food she cooked was always really good and made out of fresh vegetables and fruits. I also met a lot of other volunteers from all over the world, with who i got along great. I'm greatful i could spend the last two weeks there :)
