The Center has become my home, my shelter. From my first talk with Leslie to my last day, I felt welcomed and I know I will always be welcomed there and it will always be my home. The connections I had there with other working visitors, volunteers and residents is beyond words, so many teachings and lessons. I am overwhelmed with the love and I kindness I received. And Delfina, Charlie, Suma and my lovely little family in the barn, you all are so pure with a heart of gold, thank you for everything once again. You will have a place forever in my heart. Until next time 🫶🏻

Nico enjoys teamwork and is very collaborative. Also, not only is he open to work on any task he's asked, but he is very enthusiastic and keeps a happy mind while he's engaged in his chores. He gained and perfected various skills due to his ability to quickly learn from the feedback received from supervisors. We hope to have Nico back!

I absolutely enjoyed my stay at the Center in the Center! The people are kind and truly amazing. It is a nice place to unwind and reflect away from the noise of the city. The air is fresh and the land is clean. The hours of work are not long and you will be aware of your schedule which was good for me as I am a digital nomad and have to have time to work remotely. I wouldn't trade the time I spent there for anything, it was truly a nice experience!
