Our goal is to transform our 5-hectare jungle property into an eco-friendly retreat surrounded by the incredible wildlife of the Osa Peninsula. 🌴
Our volunteer program involves approximately 5 hours of collaboration per day, 5 days a week. Occasionally, some projects may require a little more time, always with flexibility and mutual understanding.
Every morning, we have a short meeting to organize the day's activities, divide tasks, and share ideas.
Every Friday, we review our progress, exchange feedback, and discuss improvements for the following week.
We provide basic food staples such as rice, beans, and other carbohydrates for volunteers to prepare their own meals. Additional groceries and personal food preferences are each volunteer's responsibility.
We value teamwork, initiative, open communication, and a positive atmosphere where everyone can contribute, learn, and enjoy the natural surroundings.
Activities may include:
• Permaculture and organic gardening.
• Planting and developing food forests.
• Landscaping and caring for outdoor areas.
• Eco-construction projects.
• General maintenance around the property.
• Other creative projects according to current needs.
Schedule:
• Approximately 5 hours per day, 5 days a week.
• Morning meetings to organize activities.
• Weekly evaluation every Friday.
• Occasional additional hours depending on the project, with flexibility and mutual understanding.
