We are restoring land on Tenerife’s northern coast through permaculture, creating an edible forest of exotic trees, spices, herbs and a vanilla cultivation. Our soil is recovering from conventional agriculture, and biodiversity and fruit production are growing each year. As a non-profit association, we organize workshops, finca visits and sustainability, art and creativity activities, welcoming volunteers to learn, share skills and enjoy nature.

*IN GENERAL : We need help to give life to an agricultural land which was almost a desert when we started in 2014. The tasks can vary according to the seasons. A few examples of what you might do: to give live to seeds and plant cuttings, to prepare pots for seeding, to water the plants, to feed the chickens and to improve their habitat, to dig holes for planting, to plant hedges, to make mulch and compost, to give some care to the little trees that have been planted. Thinks to have in mind are that the tasks can be physical (especially to dig holes) and the weather in summer can be relatively hot.
*FAMILIES: We don't host families at the moment. Thank you for your understanding and for not sending a request if you dream to join us as a family.
*COUPLES: Two volunteers applying as a couple are welcome.
*DIGITAL NOMADS: please take into consideration that our finca has no internet connection. We have no working space available.
The phone company with the best coverage here is Movistar
*As you can imagine, we're very focused on several projects at the same time, which keeps us busy. Sometimes, the workload can be intense, but we're always committed to what we do. To make our daily life easier, it would be great to have your support with tasks like house tasks or cooking, which would help us maintain a good balance and keep moving forward with energy.
If you are crafty and can help on your own, you might be of a great help. We always have a list of things to do but time is missing: maintain the gardens, helping to prepare the material for the activities of the association...

Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
